My SMFA students are AWESOME

Ok, so they are not really MY students, as I am not faculty and have not taught any of them specifically. But I have offered them advice, helped them with projects, and watched them as they struggle through the creative process...so I do feel a little mother hen proud when they have significant accomplishments.

First, this Friday evening Feb 5 is the artist reception at Grub Street for [Current Work] by Max Colby, Kokoro Yanagita and Wayne Kleppe. Their work includes relief printing, collograph, mural drawing and handmade paper. Their work will be up through the month of February. Grub Street is located at 160 Boylston on the 4th Floor in Boston.

And opening on Friday Feb 5 is Paper Capers: Adventures in Paper Art at the Wenham Museum. This group exhibition includes work by SMFA post-bacc student Gessica Silverman. This past fall it was exciting to occasionally be a second set of hands as she worked to pull large sheets of kozo. The Wenham Museum is located at 132 Main Street in Wenham, MA. The exhibition program also includes a few family friendly programs with children's book illustrators, readings, and hand's-on projects.
