EARLIER TODAY I WAS TALKING TO MICHELLE BISHOP AND SHE MENTIONED THAT SHE WAS GOING TO FAITH RINGGOLD'S FOUNDATION ANYONE CAN FLY 10TH ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION AT THE ACA GALLERY IN CHELSEA.

I HAD GOTTEN THE E-MAIL ABOUT THIS EVENT, BUT IT HAD GOTTEN LOST OVER THE PAST FEW WEEKS WHEN I WAS WORKING ON MY EXHIBITIONS. I AM SO GLAD I WAS ABLE TO ATTEND, IT WAS GREAT SEEING FAITH'S EXTREMELY BRILLIANT, TALENTED AND BEAUTIFUL DAUGHTERS BARBARA AND MICHELLE.

THE SIGHTS AND SOUNDS IN THE SPACE WERE UP LIFTING, I WAS MIXING AND MEETING NEW FOLKS, AND CATCHING-UP WITH FOLKS FROM UPTOWN & DOWNTOWN THAT I KNEW WOULD BE AT THE EVENT AND WAS LOOKING FORWARD TO SEEING.

I ENJOYED MINGLELING AMONG THE CROWD WHILE WE LISTENED TO LIVE MUSIC AND THE LADY JAZZ SINGER, THEY EVEN HAD MY FAVORITE DRINK, MARTINELLI APPLE CIDER.

THE ART WORK THAT WAS ON SPECIAL EXHIBIT FROM ARTIST AROUND THE COUNTRY FOR THE AUCTION WAS INSPIRING, I REALLY LIKED THE THEME, "PASSION". THE NOTICE FOR THE EVENT READ.
