Wonderful Community Stuff I am part of:

Hominy Rising
I initiated, helped organize and showed work in this 2021 exhibit of temporary art installations and site specific performances at the Hominy Creek Greenway.

12 Baskets Cafe
I'm a volunteer and mutual aid participant in this wonderful free cafe, garden and food pantry, run by Asheville Poverty Initiative.

Gleaner
Since 2017 I've been collecting fresh veggies from generous farmers at the downtown ASAP Farmers Market, for redistribution to folks who need it. Via the Society of Saint Andrew.

West Asheville Garden Stroll
I've helped organize the annual free neighborhood garden stroll in West Asheville since 2009. I also get the honor of making the artwork for the postcard every year.

Robin Wall Kimmerer Braiding Sweetgrass

Even a wounded world is feeding us. Even a wounded world holds us, giving us moments of wonder and joy. I choose joy over despair. Not because I have my head in the sand, but because joy is what the earth gives me daily and I must return the gift."
