A Recap of Linda Lee's Event at the Unfurl Collective!


 We had an incredible time celebrating Linda Lee, her art, and farmworkers at Ms. Lee's event at the Unfurl Collective! Linda Lee spoke about her memories of farmwork, or her family life, and of Apopka, then tied her stories into her quilt-making process and the art that was present. She also spoke about community, what goes into building on and what we all get back out of it. As she always says, "it takes all kinds of people to make a community". Dale Slongwhite, author of Fed Up: The High Costs of Cheap Foods was also present for her book signing, as well as to say a few words about her book and the farmworkers she interviewed for it. This event was deeply enlightening and clearly left a lasting effect on the engaged audience. Our deepest gratitude goes out to everyone involved in making this event happen, especially our friends at the Unfurl Collective, and, of course, Linda Lee for sharing her art, story, and presence with us!




While some of Linda Lee's pieces did sell, it's not too late! There are more still on display and for sale at the Unfurl Collective in Sanford , FL!
