Hi everyone! I hope you are having a great summer! Although I haven't done any major trips lately, I continue to take lots of photos locally and am enjoying trying out some new photography gear. There are a couple events I wanted to mention, so read on... In a later newsletter I will share a schedule of fall lectures and confirm the holiday craft fairs listed below. Hope to see you around! 💚 Jacki
The town of Union, NJ is hosting work from local artists in its downtown shops. I have two large framed black&white landscapes hanging in the windows of the Blue Ribbon Bakery on Stuyvesant Ave. The Art Tour kicks off on July 29 with a gala at the new library/art center. A map will be distributed, and visitors can explore the downtown while viewing the art. All invited! The exhibit will be up till August 31. *My good friend Lenny McDonald is also exhibiting!

Reception for World of Wonder Solo Exhibit
South Amboy Arts Alliance
This gallery is a lovely space right next to the train station in downtown South Amboy. I am showing approximately 30 metal prints from my "World of Wonder" collection, featuring images of land, water, and sky. Summer hours are limited, though, so please call first before visiting. We will be open on August 3 for the reception from 2-4 and likely on Friday nights in August when there will be live music on the plaza outside.
