Miriam’s Well Announces Its First Book Publication–Migrant Moon by Barbara Robidoux

This spring, Miriam’s Well is very pleased to announce the publication of its first print book! We hope to do more such projects in the future.

And here is some selected text–haiku and haibun:

MIGRATION

Three bottle nose dolphins circle the harbor off Nantucket Island. It is a cold December day and they should be out to sea on winter migration south. No one knows why they have come into the harbor. An old woman stands alone on the shore. she watches and listens.

“they have come for me”
she tells
no one.

Wendover Landing Opening at 516 Gallery

Photographs are courtesy of Christy Hengst.

Curator Suzanne Sbarge–without whom none of this would have been possible.

Christy’s birds on rust.

The birds on salt–some of this salt was actually brought back from Wendover, Utah by the artist. The rest is Morton Salt, which has a plant outside Wendover, so it comes from there as well.

By the way–the birds are for sale–just ask me for details.

516 Gallery Opening of Wendover Landing

Last Saturday night we had a tremendous event at 516. Here are some photos of Alisa Dworsky installing her piece and of the complete sculpture with poem.

This photography, by Christy Hengst (artist who created the birds–see next blog post!) shows me and Alisa very happy at the opening.
