"I really am here to select beautiful things from far and wide as well as locally to show you, to give it meaning by telling you a story about its manufacture or history, to support artists and artisans worldwide, to celebrate the threads that connect us. I believe at some core Pollyanna level that music, art and dance--as well as uncensored documentary photography--can stop war as we know it, because when we understand our similarities--our need for structure, food, water, safety, clothing, beauty, ritual, celebration, meaning-making we all share, we are home." ~Marie Payzant
