Last weekend I participated in the Highland Park Open Studios in Highland Park, NJ. Each year the Arts Commision and the Highland Park Artists Collective organize the event, promoting the artists and advertising for the event.

I had a lot of fun talking to everyone who came through the Lotus Studios and saw me and a bunch of other artists. I have attended many open studio events, but this was my first time exhibiting. It was a great chance to meet my neighbors, talk about my work, and promote our upcoming show:
