Fantastic line-up! Thank you all for your efforts on behalf of the NW Chapter. For those of you in/near Portland, I've got a small art show up at Glyph (near the Museum of Craft) until the end of the month. Stop by for a cup of tea and take a look. http://www.glyphpdx.com/events/first-thursday-art-opening-3/ Happy New Year, all!
