Welcome to a new Nicola Midnight St.Claire.

Take a look around. Although she may look different, I think you will agree, the heart of the old St.Claire is still hot and beating. But this isn’t just change; this is growth. This month we also welcome with, open arms, two new members to the St.Claire family:

THE DEAL is a venue for artistic commerce. Every month THE DEAL will feature and discuss the work of artists who we think are dynamite. THE DEAL will then give you the opportunity to buy their work right on our site. We want to support artists, their projects, and help get more art, into the homes of more people.

MIDNIGHT TALKS is an arena for conversation and the voice of The St.Claire. Keep it tuned to MIDNIGHT TALKS for continually updated audio programs covering First Fridays, Second Thursdays, Eleventh Mondays, interviews, overviews, underviews, and everything in between.

As our family grows so do our hearts. In this spirit we have decided to serenade the launch of this new era--this February--with a collection of love letters. This issue you will find artists letting the unsaid be said; telling everyone exactly who/what excites, inspires, arouses, and intoxicates their universe.

But enough talk. Pop the bubbly. Break the seal. Take her for a spin. Anchors away. Full steam ahead.
