While this level of online is quickly becoming the norm, it is widely agreed that overusing technology can be bad for your health and relationship. Fortunately, if you can make a trip to Coeur d’Alene, ID, the opening of the Art Spirit Gallery’s newest show might be the perfect opportunity to connect with friends and family offline.

Harold Balazs’ exhibition, “Old and New”, will be opening at the Art Spirit Gallery on Friday, January 9 at 5:00 pm.
