A2: Art

The Freep reports that some people are turning to art in these tough economic times. The article quotes Ann Arbor resident Kimberly Kachadoorian, who took a Raku pottery class at the Ann Arbor Art Center after losing her contract job at Ford. She has since found another job, and now volunteers at the center: “When I’m stressed out, I do more art. It’s my escape. For that little moment of time, the worries aren’t there.” [Source]
