Free chairs, flower seedlings

I've just put out some free stuff on the curb at 100 Rogers Ave:

* GONE 3 green plastic Adirondack chairs (slightly cracked, but still very sittable)
* GONE tray of morning glory seedlings (we started a bunch, and ended up with more than we need)

When I notice them gone, I'll post an update.

RIP Karen Aqua, Somerville animator and all-around wonderful person

[ron_newman]

Local artist and animator Karen Aqua died on Monday, May 30, after a long struggle with cancer. If you regularly attend art or music events in Somerville, you've probably met Karen and her husband, musician Ken Field.

Karen's animated short films are often screened at film festivals, both locally and internationally. She has also done animation for Sesame Street. She worked from Miller Street Studios in Somerville, and it was always a delight to visit her during Open Studios.

Michael Sporn's blog has a tribute to her, with many comments from people who knew her and her films.

There will be a memorial tribute to Karen at the Armory on Sunday, July 10 at 2 pm, according to Ken Field. I don't know yet whether it will include showings of her films.
