It’s fall and that means the leaves are changing and the Artwalk will be here in a blink. We aren’t really in the art gallery business, but I like taking part for a couple reasons. We have a great space to show work and that inspires all of us, and secondly, it is always great to see new faces in the shop.

An email from Jeanne Geiger triggered an idea. How about giving double duty to our November ARTwalk show. The idea gave rise to Hear Me Roar, women for women. All women artists to benefit Jeanne Geiger Crisis Center.

The idea caught fire…

Donna Baldassari said “Absolutely!”

I emailed Wendy Borger and she is in.

Sarah Burrows is so excited.

Cathy Connor is grateful to be part of the show.

Sara Demrow-Dent is painting as we speak.

Phyllis Dolobosky said, “save me a spot on the wall”.

Patricia Langley can’t wait!

Maria Malatesta texted me some great shots of little landscape paintings... perfect, and

Marisa Peters will have new work just in time.

The work will be as unique and beautiful as the artists themselves and will include painting, mixed media, and photography.

Jeanne Geiger’s mission is to empower individuals and engage communities to end domestic violence. Fifty percent of sales will go directly to Jeanne Geiger and fifty percent will go to the amazing woman who are part of this show.

I sincerely hope you can make it on November 2.

Happy Trails,

Patti
