Chapter 35 - The Infinite Canvas
The morning sun rose over Boston, bathing the Public Garden in a brilliant wash of emerald green and golden light. Inside the Beacon Hill Youth Arts Center, the doors opened wide to welcome a new day of eager students, flying paintbrushes, and unfiltered creativity.
