Last month, I gave a presentation at the annual meeting for the American Association of Museums in Philadelphia to a crowded room as part of the Small Museums Day. I reprised part of the talk at the monthly meeting for the Greater Baltimore History Alliance. Available here is the powerpoint and notes for those interested in learning more.

I’m currently serving as the publications chair for the Small Museum Association conference committee and have designed some postcards, mailers, and programs for them. In celebration of their 25th (silver) anniversary, the conference has a silver screen theme this year. These were a lot of fun to create!

I am trying out a new art form (well, new for me - actually an old art form). Commonly known as papercutting, this art is also known as “Scherenschnitte (German), Kirigami, Kiri-e, or Mon-kiri (Japanese), Sen-shi or Hua Yang (Chinese), Wycinanki (Polish), Mizrah (Hebrew), Papel Picado (Spanish), Decoupeur (French) or Papytomania (American)” (courtesy of scherenschnitte, the yahoogroups for papercutting). Here are some new pieces:

I was pleasantly surprised by how many people came out to the booksigning at Saratoga Coffee last night. There were approximately 20 people who attended, including many young adults from Beth Am Congregation. Unfortunately, my camera died before I could get shots of the audience.
