Summary

What if your art was an invitation rather than a gift? What if this was an invite to a party that celebrated failures? A FAIL-A-BRATION!? What happens when we share our wins AND losses, happy accidents AND miserable mishaps? In this fun and inspiring chat with Brad and Kristi Montague, we discuss the origins and inspiration behind their newest picture book 'FAIL-A-BRATION' and how an idea generously shared, can spark a movement.
