by Ariel Dubizh ('17) On Thursday, December 25th, Pearls of Wisdom, MTA's literary and art journal, kicked off with its first meeting of the year. We had the pleasure of hearing from Eli Berger, an editor of the 2011 Pearls of Wisdom. He talked of how creating art for yourself is pleasant, but sharing with others gives it an entirely new meaning. Shortly after, there was a brief discussion about what gets submitted and how the editors select what is to be included in that year's edition. Pearls of Wisdom is convening again on Thursday and is looking forward for another efficacious meeting. Ralph Waldo Emerson said:"Every artist was first an amateur" - so feel free to join in next week!
