Getting Curious: Recommendations

This week we’re getting curious about where we get our recommendations. Here are our prompts for cultivating your curiosity:

• Ask a friend to recommend a favorite artist, author, or musician. What does your friend like about them? Look up the recommendation and see if it appeals to you. Do your tastes usually coincide with your friend's? Do you think that is important to your friendship? 
  
  
• Think about where you learned about some of your favorite works of art, writing, or music. Who told you about them? What sources do you turn to and trust for recommendations? 
  
  
• How do you think your tastes are shaped by the people around you? Can you think of a time in your life when your tastes have changed?
