Thank You, Kenny Rogers

Remembering Kenny Rogers on his passing. Lawrence and I are grateful for his music and ever grateful for the opportunity to have commemorated his story with a 50th birthday collage. We spoke to 60 of Kenny’s family and friends to get photos and ideas for the art. And what an amazing journey. From on-site research at his farm in Athens, Georgia to Los Angeles for a spectacular birthday party—with Dolly Parton performing—and the surprise presentation.

Kenny Rogers was also One-Of-A-Kind. The songs live on. RIP.

Saluting International Women’s Day 2020

With International Women’s Day 2020 this Sunday, we join in celebrating women’s achievements throughout history and across nations. The campaign theme this year is #EachforEqual.  “An equal world is an enabled world.”

We especially honor today the hundreds of women we have collaborated with over 35 years to create One Of A Kind 3-dimensional commemorative collages. Your vision, persistence, creativity and resourcefulness have been invaluable to the artwork. We remember each one of you with amazing memories!

It’s amazing that IWD was first observed by New York City in 1909. After women gained suffrage in Soviet Russia in 1917, March 8 become a national holiday there. It was adopted in 1975 by the United Nations.

Today we salute One Of A Kind women who have embodied dynamic leadership, succeeding to achieve gender equality in their professions.
