Visit me at my new "home"

“Art is the only way to run away without leaving home.” You’ve heard that one before, right? Turns out that Twyla Tharp quote is true: I’m running away to Graphite, but I’ll be home in time for dinner.

From May to mid-July, I will be the artist-in-residence at this brand-new arts center in Edmonds, Washington. While I’m there, I’ll offer mentoring to artists just starting their careers. I’ll also create a piece that will be shown during the “Intersections” exhibit, a group show by artists (like me) with intersectional identities.

And a bonus for me: Graphite is within driving distance for me, so I literally will have all the comforts of home, in addition to studio time in an expansive space. Curious?

Come visit with me during the “Intersections” reception: it’s Saturday, May 7th at 7pm. Looking forward to talking art with you soon!
