Art in Public Place Committee for Monroe County, FL serving at the pleasure of County Commissioner David Rice.
Worked with the Art In Public Place Committee, Liz Young, Islamorada Village, FDOT, and Morada Way Arts and Cultural District to install Fragments at mm 80 by Shiho Sato as part of the US 1 Sculpture Trail and Islamorada Sculpture Garden.
Helped establish US1 Sculpture Trail with eight public art pieces from Islamorada to Key West in coordination with The Arts Student League NYC, private donors in Key West, and the Art in Public Place Committee.
Created and organized a fundraiser for the Good Health Clinic, our only community health clinic, Soup and Salad Daze, whereby artists in the Upper Keys make and donate multiple bowls and cups to be filled with soups and salads.
