I live in Madison WI and am looking to move to a larger city, under the impression that being in a larger city will provide me with more exposure and greater opportunities. I was thinking of moving to the outskirts of Chicago because it's close to my family in Madison and I love it there. I also miss Denver CO where I was born, but am unsure what kind of an art community it has. Does anyone know what cities are best for making a living as an artist? I have a degree in illustration but am also trying to get into gallery shows as well if that helps. Thank you very much for any advice.

I need some Madison, WI and Lawrence, KS comparisons. Which one? I see these two college towns brought up many times here on askme and other places when questions about walkability, simplicity, urbanity in a small setting, etc. are discussed. I ask because I am looking at possibly moving and have pretty much narrowed it down to Madison or Lawrence (with Asheville an outside possibility). I don't mean demographics, weather, etc. Inside I'll tell you what I'm looking for..... [more inside]

Either I have found a secret flaw in the opinion, or I am misunderstanding something major about Marbury v. Madison. The later is more likely, being as this would have been brought up before as one of the most important SCOTUS cases... but I can't find it anywhere! [more inside]

Madison folks: I'm moving to Madison soonish, and I'm looking for recommendations. Specifically, I'm interested in finding out about good martial arts schools and beginner-friendly bike shops, though any other recs would certainly be welcome (I know there was a similar thread before, but it's three years old and doesn't address martial arts or bikes much).

I am moving away from Madison, WI on Saturday. I want to donate a whole bunch of clothes and shoes and things. I can not for the life of me find hours and guidelines online. I often go by a "donation station" while on the bus, and will stop there tomorrow, but it would be nice to find this information so I can just call a taxi and run over with all my donations tomorrow, instead of doing so on Friday.

I live in Madison, Wisconsin. I lost my job managing a bookstore a couple of months ago and I need a new job. Does anyone in Madison know anyone who is looking to hire someone? I'll do anything at this point. My needs are not great. I'm just looking for a job. I have a BFA from a prestigious art school that no one has ever heard of, and I type very fast. Also, I'm stronger than I look.
