MY ART ON DISPLAY AT UCLA, at the Annual Silvia Winstein UCLA Arts and Crafts Exhibit

On Tuesday, May 20th, I was one of 27 artists exhibiting at the annual Silvia Winstein UCLA Arts and Crafts Exhibit. I showed prints of my cut-paper book illustrations. Many thanks to Chair Kati Radics and all the people who make the event happen. An added feature this year was Art for Fire Victims in which artists donated pieces to give to people rebuilding their homes after the terrible fires of last January. I donated an illustration from my book A Koala's World.

The tradition of the show began many years ago when Sylvia, the young widow of UCLA Chemistry Professor Saul Winstein, had a tea for some friends and displayed several paintings. 

 

Artistic emeriti friends and spouses were so enthusiastic that Sylvia organized and supported what has become a very special yearly celebration. 

 

The event is  jointly presented by the UCLA Emeriti Association, the UCLA Emeriti/Retirees Relations Center, and the UCLA Retirees Association.
