Our inspiring artist print for 2024 is straight to the point. BE KIND!

KINDNESS is the enduring quality in relationships, the feeling and touch we always remember. We chose words from 16 great people, including Jack Kerouac, FDR, Roy T. Bennett, Confucius, the 14th Dalai Lama, Kahlil Gibran, Albert Einstein, Princess Diana, Leo Holub, Eric Hoffer, Plato, and Mark Twain. The design, calligraphy, and original watercolor banner are by California Bay Area artist Ann Balaam Miller.

FAITH is the ineffable quality that keeps us hopeful and creative in the experience of life and the subject of our 2023 poster. Written observations on the meaning of faith are from Mahalia Jackson, J.R.R. Tolkien, Alan Watts, Eleanor Roosevelt, Voltaire, Gandhi, Gregory Peck, and Mitch Albom are among the 17 quotes we chose. The design, calligraphy, and original watercolor banner drawing are by California artist Ann Miller.

PATIENCE as we travel our path, feeling the impermanence—This Too Shall Pass—and reflecting on the events of 2022. Observations on life from Chaucer, Saadi, Gandhi, and Tolstoy are among the 17 quotes we selected for you. The design, hand lettering, and watercolor painting of the Northern California Coast is by Ann Miller.

HOPE was our theme for 2020, an experience that affected all of us. Hand lettering by artist and designer Ann Miller.
