  • 2007 Chicago Birthday Calender: The Chicago Office of Tourism commissioned me and my husband Tim Samuelson to create a calender for 2007. Replete with Chicago-related birthdays, poetry, original and historic artwork, it is a lovely evolution of our own personal calender that we've given as a gift to friends for over 10 years. You can purchase it online at www.chicagostore.com for the low low price of $6.00, and also T-shirts for each month. Check it out!
  • Summer 2006:
    Several War Rugs were on display at the Silk Road Oasis,
    72 E. Randolph Street, across from the Chicago Cultural Center. The exhibition ran from June 30 - October 1, 2006.

    I made a special installation of a new spice war at the Oasis from July 28 - August 1. It was on display until September 23, when I made 3 prints and then destroyed it.

    Silk Road Chicago is a year-long festival initiated by renowned cellist Yo Yo Ma, and sponsored by the Chicago Office of Tourism, Art Institute of Chicago, Chicago Symphony Orchestra and the Chicago Department of Cultural Affairs.
