What a wonderful week we had with OWCA (Oregon Women Caucus for the Arts) “Her Colours,” and with the international artists who participated.
This is the first time anything like this has been in the United States of America. I am pleased to have participated in this event. Here is a link to nice article by Kate Loftesness of the Oregonian, our local Portland newspaper.

I have so many good pictures it is difficult to decide which ones to use. Therefore, I’m including just a few of the opening ceremonies at Portland City Hall, with the mayor Sam Adams and one of the artists involved in organizing the program.
