We chose the background photo of the Isabel Bader Centre<br />
for the Performing Arts in Kingston to represent all venues<br />
little and large across our whole region, and because of all the<br />
concert halls we know its particular blend of asymmetric<br />
wood and subtly shaded forest green seating is a reminder<br />
that what we’re dealing with right now affects all of us<br />
indoors and out. Our cover art designer, Susan Sinclair says<br />
“When David sent me cover text with the heading Cancelled/<br />
Postponed/TBA I immediately thought, ‘Oh no, the issue is<br />
cancelled!’ On second reading (and double-checking with<br />
him) I realized it was just his cover concept for this strange<br />
and troubling issue. It’s been a tough few weeks for everyone,<br />
but especially for those in the service and performing arts<br />
sectors. Thankfully, I have my CDs and my little dog to keep<br />
me company. Hopefully May brings better news!”<br />
