For some Islanders, the pandemic has inspired them to revisit creative endeavors that they may have put on hold when other demands took precedence. Case in point: Alena Grady, who has used some free time from her job as a dental hygienist to revisit her passion for creating art. The Russian native had once had her sights set on attending art school. Although she was accepted by the Rhode Island School of Design (RISD) a few years back, financial and other considerations made her reconsider, and she put art on the back burner to switch career plans and raise a family.
