I don’t rant all the time – well – sort of<\/p>\n
Since arriving in Portland, my muses have kicked back into gear and I am involved in an art group [ORA]<\/p>\n
This group [http:\/\/www.northwestjewishartists.org<\/a>], was asked to mount a 2 week show at the Oregon Jewish Museum [http:\/\/www.ojm.org<\/a>] and we chose an Exodus theme.<\/p>\n This show opens tonight and if you are in Portland, it’s part of first Thursday – tonight – February 7th<\/p>\n Oregon Jewish Museum My Exodus<\/p>\n For months my mind had been a blank on what and how to do this. Then in December I remembered that my son had asked me to write down some tidbits about my life as he was interested in “things I used to do” – so for him – I had started that… He even gave me a sort of title: From Cambria Heights to Portland. In addition, over the last few years I have been sorting through family and my own photos – over 70 years of pictures – yow!<\/p>\n Then it hit me! It was exactly 40 years between my leaving New York City and arriving in Portland…that could not be a coincidence I said. And voila – From Cambria Heights to Bridgeton Road: my 40 year journey to the promised land<\/span> – was born!<\/p>\n At least it the idea was there -but no logistics – except my mind was focused on maps and photos. I yelled “help” to old friends and new for over a month – and suddenly the other day one local friend came up with an idea from a magazine she was looking at – and I then put out a “help” request on a mastermind business call that same night. Guess what – a woman on the call had seen something similar to the magazine idea with an added component – and so the planets aligned for me – the two ideas gelled and I am now in the process of putting the idea onto foam boards that will be hung in the Museum this Sunday for the opening next week!<\/p>\n There really are no coincidences – I have always been a believer in the idea that everything fits together and this sure is an example… This display is an abridged version of the journey – there are several of us in ORA and the museum is not spacious…so I am thinking of later doing an ebook using many more of my writings and photos and dedicating it to my son…<\/p>\n Tonight I will take some photos and some video footage to post on the ORA blog and elsewhere…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I don’t rant all the time – well – sort of Since arriving in Portland, my muses have kicked back into gear and I am involved in an art group [ORA] This group [http:\/\/www.northwestjewishartists.org], was asked to mount a 2 week show at the Oregon Jewish Museum [http:\/\/www.ojm.org] and we chose an Exodus theme.
