Chicas Rockeras! “The Great Outdoors” and “Swagger”

Wow! What a Summer!

It all started in June with the 2018 session of Chicas Rockeras SELA, a rock camp for girls 8-17 where I taught my first songwriting workshop. My friend and partner in PHAG! Alice Bag http://alicebag.com turned me on to this amazing community of women who change the world by offering safe, creative musical space, education and fun! check them out!!  https://www.chicasrockerassela.org

Then on to July in Sun Valley, Idaho. Where the fabulous Friesen Gallery hosted my show “The Great Outdoors”,  a nostalgic collection of my paper sculptures reflecting the summer moods and activities of that special mountain community. Brava to Andria Friesen and her top notch crew. Special thanks to Minna Casser who oversaw the whole production and treated me to an especially wonderful off road version of Idaho summer at her ranch. I had a blast on “Eye on Sun Valley” with host Lynn Pattnosh who interviewed me for this cool cable show https://youtu.be/tY_0DkjYQI4
