Please check back, as events are (hopefully going to be) added throughout the year!
2021
Patience, patience...Till we meet again, be well and stay safe. May we support each other, respect one another, create art together, and above all, be kind - the human race depends on it. We can do it.
2020
Sadly, no in-person events transpired and were much missed. At the same time, I received a few important commissions - yay for goals and deadlines!
In my March update, I wrote of my appointment to the Board of Directors of FUSION: The Ontario Clay & Glass Association, subsequently taking on the portfolio of Director/Chair of FUSION's annual Clay & Glass Show. We remained optimistic for our annual event to take place, but alas, we made the decision to postpone it to next year, so stay tuned! Meanwhile, along with "my" other arts organisation, Simcoe Contemporary Dances ("SCD"), of which I am Chair of the Board of Directors, I/we continue to work and learn and listen and do our part in navigating the pressing and ongoing crises of these times in our society.
