The 2024 Grant Recipients Exhibition at the Center for Photographic Art opens May 10th! It is truly an honor to be awarded a grant - especially one that includes an exhibition. 18 pieces from my Folding and Mending series are included - the largest local exhibition of my work to date. It kicks off Saturday May 10th at 3pm with an in-person artist talk with all four grant recipients. See exhibition dates and details below.
I am honored that my “Nexus of the Elders” collage is one of 45 pieces selected for display in the annual CPA Members’ Juried Exhibition. Many thanks to juror Allie Haeusslein and CPA Exec.
