"In a world in which we often find ourselves isolated and estranged from
one another, my work suggests and celebrates the possibility of relationship
and community where love, support, playfulness and individual self expression
can flourish." -Peter W. Michel |

PROJECT NEWS:

Conference in Rochester, New York on June 21-24 and gave a 2 screen
slide presentation sub titled: "Public Art as a Tool for Community
Activation" It was well received and may lead to placement of the first
