If you're a civilized person residing in the Western Hemisphere - and if the arts are of particular interest - you are probably an avid reader of the New York Times.
I can't tuck in to bed on Sunday evening without having read the weekend edition!
No wonder!
The daily is chock full of features on the Arts which are supplemented with - dazzling publicity stills, informative in-depth interviews, critiques, and compelling editorials - just for starters.
Now for icing on the scrumptious cake!
The New York Times is celebrating 10 years of Arts & Leisure this weekend with an eclectic gang of journalists, legends of film, theatre, music, books, television, opera, you name it.
January 6th through January 9th - readers will have the opportunity to get up-close and personal with a handful of the high-profile personalities they've been reading about in the creative field at the much-ballyhooed arts event.
