Gallery Talk: January 9, 2020 @ 5:30 p.m.

Behind the Sagebrush Curtain: Women Modernists in Montana and Idaho
November 15, 2019–January 10, 2020

This evening at 5:30pm, Sara Joyce’s son will be presenting a gallery talk at Sun Valley Center for the Arts. Bill Caccia’s talk will include anecdotes from his childhood (shared with sister Heidi and brother John), information he has gleaned by studying the 27 art journals that his mother left behind, and conversations with several of Joyce’s friends.

I am excited for the opportunity to share information gleaned from SARA, her journal work, family, and friends Margo Proksa, Elmer Martinez, Ellen Vieth, and others, in a discussion format at the Sun Valley Center for the Arts.
