The Tag Project is at Art Produce Gallery in San Diego from July 7-18!!

I have been SO consumed with the project, that I neglected to post this on the Tag Project blog!!! Thanks to Lynn Susholtz, The Tag Project has been at Art Produce for the last week and a half, and our last day is this coming Sunday.

It all started with an open plea for a high ceiling for assembling tags - and Lynn offered the use of her gallery space for an ongoing event. We have installed "Poston" and now we are nearly finished with "Tule Lake". MAYBE, just maybe, we will be able to start "Gila River" this weekend.

As the result of this event, we have finished ALL the tags for Poston and Tule Lake, (Poston was done but then a new batch of Poston tags showed up late) - Gila River is nearly complete - thanks to Edna Ito, she has been aging the tags FAST and Furiously!! The Manzanar tags are almost all numbered and ready to be aged. Heart Mountain and Minidoka is almost all aged. We are beginning to write tags for Topaz and Rowher. Amache, Jerome are standing by to be aged.

I am starting to see the light at the end of this tunnel!!!
