Shake, rattle and roll..

May 25, 2009

Roll with it would be the catch phrase for last weekend.  After a long overdue visit to San Diego for to celebrate my mother’s 75th birthday, it was quite the welcome home present to feel an earthquake from the 15th floor of my brother’s condo in downtown!

The Rose Ensemble gave a concert at The Getty Center this past Saturday evening and most left on Sunday before they had a chance to share the experience.

It’s January…

January 13, 2009

…and what exactly does that mean for this Minnesota singer? well, not much in the outside my house singing department. December concerts are in the past, I’m up to my armpits in snow, and I’m actually trying to enjoy some time at home catching up on the things that have fallen to the wayside. Especially sending my long overdue holiday presents home to my family!

A Great Weekend for Art

October 27, 2008

stoplogo A Great Weekend for ArtIt was a great weekend for art.  On Saturday evening I was privledged to be one of 80 artists that donated work to a fundraising art sale benefiting the prevention of homelessness in Minneapolis.

The event was held at gallery space at The Traffic Zone for Arts near the new ballpark in Minneapolis.  An excellent space that was able to display hundreds of art pieces and was packed to capacity at times.  The atmosphere was one of a great party where people mingled and met new faces and discussed the works of local artists displayed.
