As my show “The Recollection” was cut short due to the Pandemic in March of 2020, I am circling back to show how far I have come since then! This exhibition is both a look back and a step forward — a retrospective of more than two decades of letterpress poster-making, alongside new works that reflect a softer, more contemplative direction. The show explores how art holds memory, how process evolves, and how legacy presses on.

For the past 10 years, the Women of Influence Summit has been a transformative space for women to connect, grow, and lead with confidence not just in their careers, but in their lives. As we celebrate this milestone anniversary, we recognize that the Summit is more than just a gathering — it is a movement that fosters curiosity, community and courage in a way that is truly uncommon.

This year’s theme, Uncommon Leadership, is a call to action urging women to embrace who they are, trust their instincts, and stand firm in their values—even when it’s uncomfortable. True leadership transcends conventional norms, dismantles barriers, prioritizes authenticity, and values progress over perfection. It’s about building trust through vulnerability, empowering others, and recognizing that influence isn’t about position or power—it’s about impact.

At the 2025 Summit, we will explore what it means to be an uncommon leader — one who challenges the status quo, inspires change, and fosters meaningful relationships. Attendees will leave empowered to step forward with conviction, lead with intention, and embrace the impact only they can make.

A Call to Lead Uncommonly
As we embark on the next decade of Next Monday, we reaffirm our commitment to evolving and redefining leadership. This year’s Summit invites every woman to step boldly into her influence. Together, we will champion authenticity, drive meaningful change, and define success on our own terms.

The Make & Bake is a celebration of women-owned businesses, creativity, and community solidarity.

Over the past two years, we've proudly donated 20% of all sales and auction proceeds to our local Planned Parenthood chapter.

Cyanotype Summer Workshop at Bruno Press!
Get ready to soak up the sun and some serious creative vibes! Join us at Bruno Press for a hands-on Cyanotype Workshop—no experience necessary, just a sense of adventure and maybe a sunhat. We’ll play with a magical (and super old-school) photographic process that turns plants, found objects, and everyday junk into brilliant blue masterpieces.

You’ll be working with light-sensitive paper (we’ve already done the tricky chemistry part), then head outside to harness the power of the sun to expose your prints. It’s part science, part art, and a whole lot of fun. We’ll rinse, reveal, and repeat until you’ve made a stack of stunning cyan-blue prints to take home.

Perfect for all ages—kids, grown-ups, and anyone who wants to get a little messy and a lot inspired. Grab a friend, bring your kiddo, or roll solo and make some new artsy pals. We’ll wrap up just in time to grab lunch in Joetown.

☀️ Limited spots available—don’t wait to sign up, this summer workshop will fill fast!
