I am an Activist!" is a coloring book made to inspire and engage kids toward civic engagement from an early age (target range ages 5-10). Kiddos can have fun coloring the illustrated scenes of activism while learning what words like solidarity, empathy, advocate, optimism, GOTV and more mean. It aims at helping teach kids to speak up for what they believe in, be proud to be themselves and support others in doing the same. Created out of her passion for her kids and her career in creative activism, photographer Casey Chapman Ross brings you this thoughtful coloring book for young people of all ages. Casey Chapman Ross lives in Austin, Texas with her husband and three kids. As her own children learn and grow, so does Casey's passion for educating a young audience on how to become more community-minded, creative, kind, civically engaged humans. Casey believes the more we lead by example, involve our kids in our own passions and activism and educate through art, the more a young generation will care to get involved.

This guidebook charts new pathways through the beloved institution and tells the story its founder, a trail-blazing American who was among the most prominent patrons of her day. Isabella Stewart Gardner built a Venetian-inspired palazzo in Boston to house her exquisite and thought-provoking arrangement of art objects from diverse cultures and periods of history to share with the world. she hosted luminaries in the worlds of music, dance, and literature and supported such famed artists as Henry James and John Singer Sargent. Exploring the museum room by room, the authors of this book look at masterpieces by Botticelli, Rembrandt, Titian, and others, as well as hidden treasures, including often overlooked decorative arts, collected letters, and photographs. Rather than positioning the museum simply as a historical gem, they present it as a site for forging connections between past and present and reinforcing the founder's legacy of sustaining contemporary art, music, and education with initiatives supported by space in the New Wing designed by Renzo Piano and constructed in 2012. Featuring spectacular photography, the book captures this unique museum, helping us consider anew what the museum meant in Gardner's time and what it means in ours.
