FROM MY HEART
Recently
I gave a talk for members of my P.E.O. Chapter about my years as the creator of Fred The Litter Critter artwork. I let the audience know that I was confessing an on-going love affair that had lasted for 46 years.... and his name is FRED. It was a fun time for me as I passed around original drawings and printed materials from Festivals past. I ended my talk by showing my T-shirt quilts (2) that were made by my friend Anne Duncan. She used the T-shirt fronts from all of my collection of shirts dating back to 1982. There were no T-shirts before that time or I would have three quilts instead of two!'
It was a perfect time to pass around a sheet of paper to have those in the audience who had worked in some capacity at Children's Festival some time during the passed 46 years. Of the 23 people attending this meeting there were 11 people who have worked with me at the festival. Here's a list of those who were there to "sign in":
Mary Jo Bergstrom, Macaroni necklaces, Mother Gooseland
Carol Holst, Southern Oregon Historical Society's history booth
Robin Dressler
Valerie Root, Stage, l982-l986
Dottie Palamara, Face Painting Booth
Marjorie Overland, Kite Booth, 1981, Strolling Artists & Performers, 1982-1983 Festival Co-Director, 1984-l985 Properties
