Hello, Katie Howie Creative Friends and The By a Thread Community!
It's been a hard week here in our Beloved Twin Cities. And I feel we need each other more than ever. I want to thank each and every one of you for sharing this space with me - What a gift we are to each other❤️
As a way to celebrate our beautiful By a Thread Community and Downtown Saint Paul Community, Saint Paul Parks and Recreation and myself are planning a By a Thread exhibit and celebration!

It will take place on Friday, September 26 from 5-7pm in Mears Park. There will be art from Downtown Stories, live music, food and drinks from local businesses, as well as a keynote by Mayor Melvin Carter and a panel featuring several By a Thread participants and myself.
I would love for each and every one of you to come! And to bring your friends, family and colleagues. I will have my husband, children and parents with me❤️
