This is my little art area that is in my downstairs hall way. There is a little built in desk that I have made my special creating space for sewing, painting, jewelry making etc. I was in the middle of a painting when I took this picture, so its a bit messy.
The Project on Prosperity and Development will host the Creating Shared Value Conference as part of its ongoing work on the role of the private sector in addressing enduring socioeconomic challenges in the world's poorest countries. Join us for a discussion on ways to maximize shared value between businesses and the often rural communities in which they operate. The conference will build on the energy generated by Nestlé's Creating Shared Value Annual 2014 report to discuss innovative ways government and civil society can work with the private sector to achieve rural development goals. This event is made possible with support from the Nestlé Corporation.

Daily cremations take place along the sacred Bagmati River in front of the Pashupatinath Temple in Kathmandu, Nepal. I definitely had mixed emotions regarding viewing cremation. I didn’t know what to expect or how I would feel, but I decided to enter the area and stay as long as I felt comfortable.
Walking toward the puffs of black smoke ascending from stone cremation platforms along the Bagmati River was very eerie at first, especially when I knew that the smoke was coming from bodies that were burning . . . and, not knowing what to expect, I thought I might see recognizable bodies on fire.
As I walked closer to that area I was concerned about breathing in the smoke and I was a bit afraid that I could be exposing myself to disease, but the more I saw, the more intrigued I became.
The preparation of the body for cremation along the Bagmati River is really beautiful and something to see. Family/friends come with marigolds to adorn the body and the area around the body. It was a ritualistic ceremony with lots of detail which of course I did not fully understand.
What I did understand was the love and compassion the family/friends demonstrated during the cremation ceremony. I was able to watch some of the preparation for a deceased man and was able to follow the procession to his cremation platform.
I was moved by what I saw. Looking at my pictures and remembering what I experienced I feel honored to have been with this man at such an important time. It was nice that he was accompanied by family and friends at the very end, and I’m sure the family/friends were honored to be there.
My father was cremated in 2005, but of course none of us were present during his cremation. After his death at home we knelt around him and prayed the Rosary. Then we sat around him and talked. In the morning, when people from the mortuary came to take him, everyone left the room but me. I helped put Dad in the bag and helped take him from the house. They let me do the final zip of the bag once he was in the mortuary vehicle. I thought of my dad while watching the cremation of the Nepalese man.
Pashupatinath Temple is Nepal’s most sacred Hindu shrine and one of the greatest Shiva sites. A translation for Shiva is “The Auspicious One” or “Great God”. Shiva is a popular Hindu deity.
This extensive Hindu precinct is a collection of temples raised over the centuries along the banks of the sacred Bagmati River and is included as one of the seven monument groups in UNESCO’s designation of Kathmandu Valley as a cultural heritage site.

We’re creating a Haunted House with lower-school students in our Maker Art class at the Lycée Français this fall.
In this after-school workshop, students are building a fantasy world together, with magical creatures, ghosts, witches and other animated characters inspired by Halloween.
We are combining arts and technology to bring their creations to life: each student will have their own room in our haunted house, and they will learn to build simple robots with motors and Arduino, then play with lights and sounds to tell their stories for our ‘show and tell’.
For our first class, we invited students to plan their Haunted House together, then design their rooms and characters, to be featured inside their cardboard ‘wonderboxes.’ My associate Sarah Brewer showed them how to create their own electronic circuit to light up an LED, using copper tape to connect the LED to the battery.
We teach this class to students in grades 4 and 5 at the Lycée Français in Sausalito, every Thursday at 3:30pm, from September 15 to December 15, 2016.
