I’m incredibly honored and grateful to be the recipient of the Regional Award from the Appraisers Association. It is truly a joy having the opportunity to collaborate with everyone at the organization. Many thanks to Linda Selvin, Patrick McIntyre, Yasemin Yeldener, Teresa Caputo, Lisbeth Sandø, and all my wonderful Appraisers Association member appraisal colleagues including my fellow members of the Membership Committee! I'm really looking forward to attending the conference! Thank you again for this recognition!
I'm overjoyed to share a new exhibition of midcentury modern design featuring 35 significant objects curated by my dear friends and colleagues Alexander and Vanessa Wendl of Toad Atelier from their extensive and important collection of midcentury modern design. The exhibition is presented by Larissa Wild Fine Art, the art gallery of my dear friend and collaborator Larissa Wild and can be viewed online.
It has been a career highlight for me to be able to collaborate in the creation of this exhibition, especially the joy of diving into curation--one of my favorite activities--with incredible people I care about and respect deeply.
I'm honored and excited to be a guest in the Artifcts® educational series “Evenings With Artifcts" this Wednesday evening at 8 PM Eastern, especially because I will be speaking together with my wonderful friend and colleague Tanzy Ward.
Tanzy and I will join Artifcts® co-founders Ellen Goodwin and Heather Nickerson plus an Artifcts® community member in an in-depth discussion on collecting, antiques, and the “why” of a collection. Our conversation will cover topics such as what is a collection and why do people collect? We will also have the treat of Tanzy sharing some of her favorite antique photos and jewelry within her own collection for examples. Please save the date: May 15th at 8pm EST (5pm PT). A replay will be posted to the Artifcts YouTube channel following the event.
I am incredibly honored to join my dear friend Tanzy Ward in this upcoming presentation for the National Association of Black Professional Organizers (NABPO) on March 20th titled "Understanding the Historical Significance & Value of Antiques & Heirlooms." NABPO’s mission is to provide education & support to professional organizers of all ethnic backgrounds. I want to extend a special thanks to Tiffany Blassingame for thinking of us with this opportunity!
