Alterations
Dear Friends
We are in the process of figuring out a new design for the Blog. A visit to this site might be a bit like watching someone with Multiple Personality Disorder, because every encounter could look different.
Once we have decided on a final 'look' for the blog there will be no more changes, but in the mean time please be patient with us.
Sincerely
Us

Fashion and Art

"Fashion Becomes Art" is an opportunity to see the unique vision of this multi-disiplinary artist. Valerie uses the art of screen printing as a bridge between art and craft by applying her designs not only to paper, but many other surfaces, most noteably clothing.
.
"In my designs on both fabric and paper, I continue to be inspired by my love of sewing, music, vintage fashion and culture, and the low brow art movement. All of these combined have brought me great pleasure in allowing people to express themselves through what they wear and carry my art on their sleeves. "
.
Join us on First Friday March 5th for the opening reception, from 6-9pm.
This exhibit will run from March 2nd to 27th.
