It says so much about the possibilities that lay ahead for us after a time of introspection and unrest. In the photograph, there is a sense of endurance, beauty, love, and lightness. And that is what this issue of Chic Compass magazine is all about.<\/p>\n<p>Our multi-talented writers have once again done a splendid job to bring us stories that demonstrate our willingness to forge ahead during tough times, doing what we do best.<\/p>\n<p>On the health side, there is an interview with the outstanding husband\/wife team, Drs. Kate Zhong and Jeffrey Cummings, a driving force behind the clinical trial that led to the drug\u2019s path to passage to help Alzheimer\u2019s patients. During COVID, there was an increase in the need to treat mental illness and depression, and we share that story with you.<\/p>\n<p>We know things are getting better when we can travel, dine out, and be entertained. There is an article about an exciting island that you may not have thought of visiting before. Chic Compass shares some of the new restaurants that have opened in the Las Vegas area, with so many lip-smacking items that you will find it nearly impossible to make a choice. And entertainment is on the rise with a new show in town that you won\u2019t want to miss. Plus, you won\u2019t want to miss out on seeing an up-and-coming new musical talent that brings back memories of the musical legends.<\/p>\n<p>Chic Compass shares with you articles about two exquisite artists who share their talents in different ways. We tell you about a new non-profit that delivers high-caliber accessible art experiences. Woo-hoo! Bring out your pearls and strut your stuff. It\u2019s time to dress up again!
