I recently won part of a local competition for a week-long pop-up space in The Seedling Collective in Old Town Alexandria for the week of July 29 - August 4. (The Seedling Collective is a new creative workspace.) I will be using the space as a retail gallery shop and a working studio.
As part of the competition, the winners are asked to donate 6% of their sales during their pop-up week to a local Alexandria non-profit, and I choseThe Art League. I love the work the Art League does with creative community outreach with programs like SOHO, which works with at-risk teen and pre-teen girls, and IMPart, which works with injured military personnel. I'm proud to be a member of The Art League, and am honored to be able to help assist with future outreach programs to benefit the local community and beyond.
I am having an open reception on the evening of Thursday, August 1, 2019 from 6:30 - 8:30pm. You can enjoy sips & snacks and are welcome to brings friends as well.

It started with a collage: a festivity of blue and white. The Blues Collection is an exploration of the color blue, a celebration of historical ceramics, a communion of texture and line, and a little bit of letting go.
