AKG Newsworthy NOLA #8
October is here and with October comes the beautiful weather. It is always gorgeous in New Orleans at this time of year and the city is open, so if you can visit, you won't be disappointed. We are still practicing all of the safety measures we have all come to embrace and will continue until this is over.
September brought us the sadness of Ruth Bader Ginsburg's death.
She was a powerhouse in the Women's movement and we mourn her loss but are so much better off for the work she did. We are closer to a vaccine and life is beginning to return to the new normal. Continued attention to racial injustice has created a surge of positive changes. People are educating themselves, having the necessary conversations, a dialogue is happening and change is in the air.
We are at a critical turning point in the United States and a very important election is upon us. Exercise your right to vote. It is a privilege earned on the backs of our ancestors and every vote makes a difference.
Here at the Angela King Gallery, we have mounted a beautiful exhibition of Seven Women artists that span all different mediums. If you can't see it in person, please look at the show online and enjoy it. It's fabulous.
Be well, get out in the beauty of the fall wherever you are. Show gratitude to and for all of the gifts in your life. Remember that all gifts don't come wrapped as gifts, but you can find the benefit in everything because there is always good to be found.
With gratitude for you, my family of art lovers,
A. King
