Wonderful and welcoming school full of talented people!

My New York client wanted a quote on the amazing Duck umbrella sculpture at the art walk yesterday. He was willing to offer 1 million USD, and the admin was very rude and wouldn't give me the artist's info. The administrator was just sitting there watching the person at the desk. What a weird school.
