Housing


Tonight is the opening of the Home, Loving it, Losing it, Leaving it show at the Gallery at the UM Duderstadt Center. This show is sponsored by the Michigan chapter of the Women's Caucus for Art and was juried by Larissa Larson asst professor in the UM Dept of Urban Planning. I'm on of the co-organizers and also have a couple pieces in the show. The opening is from 6-8pm - come and see!

Also on the subject of homes, The New York Times ran a story this week on the removal of the FEMA trailers in New Orleans - pulling housing out from people who desperately need it and only in order to destroy the trailers. It's an obscene travesty to do this and I hope the New York Times article will help spur FEMA to do the right thing although I'm not even slightly optimistic about it.
