Having gone through a major move in the last year, it has been packed up and stored in a very generous friends barn for the last 6 months.. Thanks Kym!!<br />
<br />
Today I applied to have it installed in the Portland Building and am looking to possible find a more permanent place for it to be viewed and interacted with.. Possibly a hospital or something of the sort. Keep your eyes out and let me know if you know of a great home for the Recovery Panes Healing Project to help even more people!!

Many were moved and approached me about how to incorporate a Recovery Panes style project in their community. All 9 windows were on display and many non-conference people were able to participate in the interactive installation part of the project. One guy was so moved he thanked me profusely while he teared up holding the book with all the stories. This makes my heart warm.Kelhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13177371649786754263noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7402657122373877619.post-81931866642216091752011-07-24T11:57:00.000-07:002011-07-24T11:57:13.969-07:00International Encaustic Retreat will feature Recovery Panes Project!!I will be installing the project at Edgefield here in the Portland area for the International Encaustics Retreat.

Thursday, May 5th – From 5:30 until 7:00pm<br />
At the City Club Offices<br />
901 SW Washington<br />
<br />
Please join us for a presentation of the Recovery Panes community arts project. Recovery Panes was conceived and facilitated by Kelly Williams, a Portland based artist with a professional background in social services. In this project, participants worked to express the impacts of addiction through encaustic painting (beeswax based medium) and writing. The result is a dynamic assemblage of paintings and stories, articulating the complexity of addiction. Please join us for a presentation and discussion with Kelly Williams and some of the participants. This show will be on display in the City Club offices until May 16thKelhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13177371649786754263noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7402657122373877619.post-75096018454300478432011-03-09T12:07:00.000-08:002011-03-09T12:07:40.598-08:00Recovery Panes at City Hall!As of yesterday, Recovery Panes is up and showing for the next month on the 2nd floor of City Hall!<br />

Kelly gave testimony this morning at the State of the Arts address, explaining how organizations like RACC make these kinds of creative healing projects possible, and how important these projects truly are. Once again, we'd all like to thank RACC and City Council for all the incredible support we've been given throughout this process! Be sure to stop by City Hall and see the installation sometime this month--new catalogs have been printed and they're gorgeous!Kelhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13177371649786754263noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7402657122373877619.post-69686640669416790752011-01-26T16:11:00.000-08:002011-01-26T16:11:25.848-08:00Final Paperwork Submitted!As of today, our final paperwork has been submitted to RACC! This is really exciting for us...we have been feverishly working away on spreadsheets and finalizing reports for quite a while now and the tedious part is OVER! Now we can just sit back and enjoy the ride as Recovery Panes goes to City Hall and hopefully further...<br />
<br />
Again, we would like to thank the Regional Arts and Culture Council, Beth Earnest Real Estate, Reynolds Optical, p:ear, and the countless other people and organizations that made this project possible. Thank you all so much, and we hope to see you at future exhibitions of Recovery Panes!Kelhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13177371649786754263noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7402657122373877619.post-10071705375631903862011-01-19T12:08:00.001-08:002011-01-19T12:08:14.566-08:00City HallI've been nailing down dates and times with City Hall. Looks like they not only want the Recovery Panes Project installed in the Atrium during the annual State of the Arts Council, but they have asked me to 'testify' at the Council as well. As much as I talk, and talk, and talk... the thought of speaking is a bit un-nerving.<br />
