Art in The Garden ~ Creativity Makes a Difference!

A bit of a plug : )

Always looking to make a difference - our friend - jewelry artist - Lucinda Page and I are hosting an event in my garden April 26th!  It is going to be a blast - another friend - Diane Tiller - music program director at Ceasar Chavez Middle School is bringing music to the day!!! 10 am to 4pm - come join us !!!

Magic in the garden with lovely sounds and lovely Created by Hand items to purchase with goodies to munch - Could you ask for anything more??? Of course - let's have the day make a difference for a good cause.... The George Mark Hospital here in Fremont is up to some amazing work with children and their families in what to some of us may think of as impossible to deal with!  They can use all the help they can get - you can see them at www.georgemark.org.

 Their Mission:A welcoming, home–like refuge for the most seriously and terminally ill children and their families — before, during and after their child’s illness and life, is over.

  Artists will include : Kathy August will be showing her wonderful  "special" pincushions.  Her daughter Catherine who is my inspiration) will have some of her very FUN magnets and artful yummy goodies!
Our friend Julia will have her latest book of Poetry - stunning artwork in it and I was moved by her tribute to her mother.  Lucinda's jewelry is metal art with a bit of a sculpture feel - simple and stunning.  She is hoping to bring her friend that does amazing fine silver/gold and gemstones rings ( my fingers are crossed!)
My walking buddy Lynn is making her super lattes to support the Avon Breast Cancer Walk - I could use one right now after being glued to the computer this morning!  I will have some fabric collaged books and koffee schnuggles and ???   Another amazing artist will be showing her cards - Laura Basha-Nuehausel of White Bird Rising. All of us are giving a percentage to George Mark Hospital and the Family of Women.


Thank you for letting me plug this and share my garden - more to come!!!

We are supported by and supporting the local area of the Family of Women.
Our Mission is:

 We lead, inspire and mentor women to embrace their power, purpose and value, and to take responsibility for their relationships.  We empower women to live the lives they love, igniting their passion to make a positive contribution in the world.  

inspiration this week is EVERYWHERE - Did you see the sunrise this morning?

creativity looks different to all of us - find it in others and acknowledge it in yourself.

gratitude -  looking at life through the filter of "gratitude" creates the space in your world for possibilities to thrive!
