I have been amazed by the number of fantastic and fun activities that are being made available for free during this worrying time of COVID-19 and lockdown.
Of course it would be lovely to do everything. But I am trying to stay disciplined and keep working on my art business, painting and designing, so I've had to pick and choose what extra things I do with my time.
For me continuing to sing is a must. How about you?
If you're looking for new or additional things to enjoy, and want a fix of arts and culture then some of these may be ideal for you.
