The Edison Arts Society 10th Anniversary Gala Season

Dear Friends of the Edison Arts Society,
During these challenging economic times, may we all be reminded that the greatest gifts we share are the simple dreams we keep in our hearts: dreams for our families and friends, and the greater world we all share. The arts are a vital part of that world, and they help bring us further enlightenment, joy and enrichment within our lives.

Thank you.
Angelo, Anne, & Jamie

Emily Dickinson (1830-86)
Part Two: Nature
LXXXV

A LIGHT exists in spring
Not present on the year
At any other period.
When March is scarcely here

A color stands abroad
On solitary hills
That silence cannot overtake,
But human nature feels.
