On Friday, December 4 from 6:58-7:10pm I am hosting a Virtual Holiday Card Making Party.
A handmade holiday card is a magical way to show someone you care about them.
Spread your craft supplies out on a table. We are going to make holiday cards together on Zoom. I will provide instruction and take your questions during this live demonstration.
Suggested Supply List:
Plain paper or blank card and envelopes
Markers, crayons, paint pens and other decorating supplies
Wrapping paper, tissue paper, old holiday cards, photographs, newspaper and magazine cuttings.
I will be give a studio tour during the live, virtual online arts festival on Zoom showcasing Jersey City arts.
See the recent fiber sculptures I have been working on in quarantine in response to recent events. I will be weaving and taking questions from the audience during this live event.
Even in the middle of a global pandemic the show must go on… I have several upcoming shows opening in public and virtually. Here’s what’s coming up for me…
On June 5, 2020, McCarty and I participated in @ Virtual Access JC Fridays to show fibre works from I Am My Hair while I demonstrated the Larks Head Knot .

As a woman, I find it is often easier to make my way in the world by keeping my mouth shut. To simply grin and bare it when haters, well-meaning friends or co-workers say or do something insensitive.
With ‘Big Mouth’, I am all of it. The sass, the crass, the erudite and more than that aware. Aware of the language used to quiet me down. To remind me of what is, and most importantly, what isn’t being said.
Exhibition Run Dates: September 6th- 29th
Artist Talk & Yarn Wrapping: Sunday, September 15th, 1pm-3pm
Opening Reception: Saturday, September 7th, 5pm – 8pm
