It was a happening evening April 22 at VIVO Contemporary, a new Canyon Road gallery in Santa Fe. I was honored to be included in their Book Arts eVent exhibit featuring numerous regional book artists.
The opening was like old home week for me to see so many friends from my past days in Santa Fe. Laura Wait is making more frequent trips down from Colorado since she and husband Bob recently acquired a modern loft space in Santa Fe. She is seen here with Tom Leech, papermaker, printer and Director of the historic Palace Print Shop & Bindery at the Museum of New Mexico, where I once worked.

The VIVO Contemporary gallery features a permanent book arts room that allows hands on exploration of works created by their regular artists, as well as guests.
