Draw Together: As Community, As Friends. image

\n\nRalph Covert and his band The Bad Examples have been a staple of the Chicago scene since their heyday in the early '90's, when their song Not Dead Yet was burning up the airwaves on Chicago's WXRT and on radio stations from coast to coast in America and as well as in Holland. Ralph has toured from LA to New York to Amsterdam, and played shows with bands including Los Lobos, Squeeze, Del Amitri, Steppenwolf, Wilco, The Lemonheads, Golden Earring, and BB King. With his family music project Ralph’s World, he has received a GRAMMY nomination, been on the front page of the New York Times Arts Section, and tours nationally, bringing his music to a new generation.\n\nLearn more about Ralph Covert HERE!\n\n

\n\nNature Cat can’t wait to get outside for a day of backyard nature excursions and bravery! But there’s one problem; he’s still a house cat with no real instincts for nature. That doesn’t stop this passionate and curious feline, who loves learning and experiencing all he can about nature.\n\nLearn more about Nature Cat HERE!\n\n
