what is engagement in art?

As many of you know, one of my activities in the community is coordinating art shows at the Tualatin Library. I've been doing this for 15 years and have curated over 50 art shows in that time. Each one has been unique offering of art and artistic insight. I recently installed the newest exhibition featuring the artwork of Rebecca Lockwood on the theme of "Visual Story Telling," and in my publicity article for the show, I discuss the all-important topic of "engagement." I invite you to read the article and visit the show which is really exciting. My thanks to the City of Tualatin and the Tualatin Arts Advisory Council for supporting this program and to Tualatin Life Newspaper for always making room for an article about art life in our city.
