The Next Step

So, as I have mentioned before, I’m in school until December when I expect to complete my BA. After that I’m at a bit of a loss what to do, because money is short and a Masters seems so far away.

I’m a little blog happy tonight, but with good reason.  Judy Chicago is exhibiting a new show at the Textile Museum of Canada! I have loved Judy Chicago since I read Through the Flower in OAC.

Stitchin’ Fish

As part of what I hope will become a recurring feature here, I feel really compelled to share an excellent exhibition with anyone who may chance to read this.
