Mary Anderson is an award-winning children’s book author of thirty novels and two plays. Writing has always impacted Mary’s art and her desire to tell a good story with a lasting theme is a hallmark of her work. Whether writing or creating collages on glass, Mary incorporates bits and pieces of many people, places and things, reshaping them into something new. Old photos figure prominently in her work. The tenuous aspect of collage on glass makes the images more durable and at the same time creates artwork which is far more fragile, reflecting the more temporary aspects of life.

Hope to see you there!

A fabulous Midcentury art and design show will be opening soon in Rochester at the Memorial Art Gallery. Crafting Modernism: Midcentury American Art and Design opens in the Grand Gallery on Sunday, February 26 and will be up until Sunday May 2oth. An opening reception takes place on Saturday, February 25. Looks like a fabulous show!!

So…let’s say FOUND has its very own print shop. What should we put on our posters?

We’re offering a special promotion throughout February called “Bring a friend to FOUND!”

Here’s how it works:

First, bring a friend to FOUND who hasn’t been in yet. Then come to the counter and claim a free FOUND tote bag – one for you and one for your friend.

While you’re there, sign up for a drawing for not one but TWO $25 dollar gift certificates – one for each of you. We’ll draw the winners on the 29th of February. Leap day even. How cool is that.

Questions??
Q: What if I haven’t been to FOUND yet?
A: What are you waiting for? Grab a friend and get down here!

Q: Can I sign up more than once?
A: Oh heck yeah, as long as you bring a friend each time.

Q: What if I can’t get a friend to come?
A: Oh you poor thing. Tell us your sob story and maybe we’ll relent and give you a tote anyway.

We’re open every day except Tuesday, 10-6 (but you probably know that already!) Hope to see you soon.
