Artist's Reception

We're off to California shortly, for family graduations and other obligations, not to mention a party or two. Best of all, the "Put a Roof Over Our Heads" exhibit is at the San Jose Museum of Quilts and Textiles. I have a piece called "Art, Its a Heady Experience" in the show. I was excited that I could see the piece hanging in a museum setting, and then I decided to kick the whole thing up a notch.

I contacted the Museum and have rented the facility after hours for an Artist's Reception. The folks at the Museum are delightful to work with and its turning out to be more economical than I had expected. Not cheap, mind you, but reasonable. So Friday June 22nd from 5-7 pm, the entire Museum is mine. I have invited everyone I know, and asked them to bring their friends. As a matter of fact, if you're in the area, please come---oh, and bring your friends.

This whole experience is very validating. I've laid claim to the artist moniker, and have been comfortable with that for more than a year, but this makes me feel very professional.

I'll keep you posted on what happens, hopefully with photos.
