Nico Arnett said yes to curating her own ceramics and photography art show before giving her brain a chance to say no. Never mind that her ceramics studio had been mothballed since moving nearly three years ago. Never mind that her realtor career and family life had taken over most of her free time.

Never mind that – eek – this would be her first ever art show. This would be an exercise in putting the weird little brain out there and see what comes of it.

This is a story about throwing caution to the wind, and trusting that the Sunshine Coast community will always celebrate and support anyone taking a creative risk.
