to our readers

In this issue, Duluth is spelled c-r-e-a-t-i-v-e. From Lake Avenue in Canal Park to Iron Mug in Morgan Park, restaurateurs have found routes to advocacy through serving food. Relics columnist Kathleen Murphy finds an inspiring way to look “down” on the city. Northern Bedrock Historic Preservation Corps is teaching the new generation how to maintain the history of our infrastructure. What’s old is new again in West Duluth, where Zenith Bookstore offers real books to hold in your hand. Read about a pastry chef who keeps more than busy working from home, and a candlemaker whose business is ready to break out of the basement. And in one of the best examples of how Duluth inspires creativity, read Christa Lawler’s report about pop-culture references. From movies to TV to song, there’s a lot to be proud of.
