Appalachian Cultural Project

I had an awesome time in Whitesburg, I really enjoyed seeing everyone from Western, and I enjoyed being immersed in photo talk for an entire week. Here are some of my favorite images from the week. Be sure to check the website www.acpworkshop.org for what went on during the workshop, archives of previous workshops and for updates as the multimedia and picture stories are added.

Pink in the morning

When I was growing up if I wanted to know if the weather was going to be good or bad, my mom used to say, "Pink in the morning, sailors take warning." Since I have been home for "spring break" we have gotten about 5-6 inches of snow. Sunday morning I woke up to Gus parading around my room, chirping at the birds and this beautiful pink/orange/yellow mural on my wall. It was a good indication since it snowed on and off all day yesterday. In case you are wondering you can also tell when there will be good weather, the other half of the saying was, "Pink at night sailor's delight."

Warrior women

Here's a little collage of the cast of the 2009 Vagina Monologues at EMU. The performances are this weekend and I am really excited!

Women's History Month again

I revised the poster, and I like this version much better!

Vagina Monologues

I am performing in the Vagina Monologues again this year. It has been a wonderful experience so far, and I am really glad I decided to audition. I have met some awesome people, and as always it is for a great cause. All of the proceeds from ticket sales will go to a women's shelter in Washtenaw County, and from what I understand the shows at Eastern always sell out. Here are a few shots from one of our rehearsals.

Women's History Month

This is the other thing I have been working on for my assistantship. We needed a poster to advertise the Women's History Month activities at Eastern this year. My friend Nicole came up with the theme and I ran with it. Hope you like it, and to my friends on this you should feel proud to represent WHM 2009 at Eastern Michigan University!
