Jazz Musicians Portraits on Display in Atlanta UPDATED

If you are in the Atlanta area, you will be interested in the exhibit of Leanna Leithauser-Lesley's needlepoint portraits of jazz musicians.  If you aren't in the area and can't see the exhibit or participate in the group stitching at the Cobb Galleria, you can still listen to an interview in the link below.  Just click on Listen at the top of the page under the slide show.

Many thanks to Sandy for pointing this out on Facebook.

UPDATE:  Her jazz and blues portraits will be on display in Selma, Alabama starting in October 2019.  If you can't be there, watch the video.
