How things unfold....

We recently watch the Documentary, "Who Does She Think She is?" Was really good to see this together.

"Art is a portal. Through it we can explore these mysterious depths, see the beauty of our world more clearly, understand ourselves and other more deeply, and realize the gift of our individuality. Like walks along the river, making art is a journey of illumination and possibility, pregnant with potential for ourselves, those we touch, and ultimately, beyond."
Quote from Lauren Rader-Studio Stories
Our opening for this exhibit will be Friday July 7th from 7-11pm If you get a chance do stop by or though the Month of July "the diversity will be astonishing."
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!
