The reception for Beneath the Surface, and Into the Fold-folded upcycled books by Delainey Barclay was last Thursday. It was great fun to see friends- both ones I have known and others I got to meet for the first time- in person. Siegel JCC ArtSpace committee member Phyllis Aerenson was everywhere snapping away. Here are some of her shots…
