More About Artist Talk: Linda Mae Tratechaud + Community Donation Drive

To showcase the current Vladem Window Box artist, Linda Mae Tratechaud, the Museum is partnering with the local non-profit Many Mothers. Tratechaud's installation, “The Promise (Or, A Resting Reality Room of Her Own),” explores the emotional complexity of caregiving and motherhood. Join the artist for a talk about the personal experiences, materials, and ideas that shaped her installation (on view through November 1).

Many Mothers provides a caring community supporting the health, well-being, and happiness of all mothers, infants, toddlers, and their families.Learn more at manymothers.org. In support of their work, attendees are encouraged to bring donations of hypoallergenic baby wipes; infant grooming supplies such as infant nail clippers/files, baby combs/brushes and baby wash/shampoo; and Size 6 diapers.

The Community Donation drive runs October 1-16, during which time you can bring these goods to the donation box in the lobby at the Vladem Contemporary, 404 Montezuma Ave, Santa Fe.
