The MOSAIC OF ART has an art installation this week that precludes proper preparation and promotion of a new Sunday broadcast.

GEE'S BEND QUILT COLLECTIVE detail

Cued up instead is a sampler: brief conversations with China Pettway, a quilter from Gee's Bend, soundbites from Chicago's 2010 Society of American Mosaic Artists conference, bits of conversation from stages of a Malaysian mosaic collaboration this past spring and interview segments with artists and art patrons at  from along the way.  I hope you enjoy this appetizer and that you will join me again for a "normal" broadcast next week.
