Where do we go from here?
On this week's episode of MARS, Matthew & Rizzle do NOT talk about Rizzlefest. Promise. Instead, the conversation focuses on the shifting of the guard that's taking place from builders to collectors and artists and beyond and what that means for those of us focused on a particular mission and align with a specific type of building ethos.
