Surprise!



On Thursday Skeena hosted a surprise party for Dana at Lawrence's studio. There was food and booze and a jar with a slit in its lid to off-set the cost.

Shortly after Dana arrived -- SURPRISE! -- Skeena presented her with a blanket she made, at the centre of which is the Lakota star. Dana moved through the room and acknowledged each and every one of us; Skeena said a few words and sang a few songs. At one point we all joined hands and danced clock-wise while someone's dog stood in the middle and barked.

There was more, of course, but that's enough for now.

On June 27 Skeena's Surrounded opens at the Morris and Helen Belkin Art Gallery.
