For my frozen ice (January) birthday, I was gifted with a workshop at a local arts center. Oh man, I used to take the beach urchins there to do little art prodjects and once I hosted a birthday party there and a customer asked me if I worked there. Nope. I also had that happen to me at the Berkeley Bowl. Miss, where can I find [this exotic veggie]? I didn’t know. I flew to SanFran from DayTwa Metro that day to visit my daughter. Had never been there before. Laughing because I am not an old hippie although I can sometimes look like one.

I am overwhelmed by the choices at the art center but one of them kinda stands out. I have been intrigued by maps my entire life. And I have been intrigued by creating maps of my homeland for a while. So there’s a workshop that deals with topographic maps of whatever places you want. We’ll see what I do. The pic is a map that Little Cat Z made of the moominbeach when she was a child. She nailed it.

I want to make fabric maps of my homeland (and adopted lands) and this workshop is not a fabric workshop but I wonder if it would inspire me.
