WinterActive 2012

February is almost here. And though it's been a remarkably mild winter (at least here in the Northeast) the temptation to hibernate—to crawl under our covers and awaken to a bright sunny day in April—persists. But take our advice and don't give in. Embrace the season and get out in the world. You might be surprised by what awaits you: An unbelievable exhibit of upcycled, recycled, and reimagined consumer goods in Connecticut; DIY kits to keep you busy ; and a whole lot more. Check back these next two weeks and see what WinterActive 2012 has in store for you!
