August 23 thru 30, 2008 I participated in the EDGE Program with 16 other Washington artists at Centrum. Located in Port Townsend in the historic Fort Worden State Park, Centrum is a statewide center for arts and creative education.

The EDGE Professional Development Program for Artists is a comprehensive survey of professional arts practices offered through a hands-on, interactive curriculum that includes instruction by professionals in the field, specialized presentations, panel discussions and assignments. The EDGE Program provides artists with the relevant and necessary entrepreneurial skills to achieve their personal career goals and the opportunity to build community through peer support and exchange. www.artisttrust.org
