THE KRIEGER LIST: I ON THE ARTS' TOP 2022
With very little ado, enjoy my list of things I enjoyed in 2022 for the first time, in alphabetical order!
You will notice a lack of my own writing here. That's because I've been doing very cool things at the Museum of Work & Culture, and you can check out those projects here!
As always, you can check out previous years here.
