Jeffrey has a heartfelt conversation with Alice Kitselman-Rivera, the visionary behind the original and recently reborn Dragonflyrsquo;s Delights, a nonprofit organization benefiting women just diagnosed with breast cancer. After Alice was first diagnosed with breast cancer at the end of 2000, and survived the long ordeal, she wanted to give back to others. Dragonflyrsquo;s Delights was first born to originally create beautiful baskets filled with gifts aimed at comforting, soothing, and delighting the woman who have just found out they have breast cancer. In 2007 Alice was once again dealing with another round of cancer treatments that is still ongoing and so In December of that year, Alice and her husband, Edgard, owner of Stepbridge Studios, New Mexicorsquo;s leading recording studio for music and audio post production, decided to rebirth Dragonflyrsquo;s Delights with a new focus #38; mission. Dragonfly's Delights now provides stories, quotes, inspiration #38; art for those who either have cancer - Messages of Hope, and for those who are giving support to someone with cancer, Messages of Cope. In this way Dragonfly's Delights offer Messages of Hope and Cope when dealing with the complications of living through cancer. Alice is now back working in her art studio, creating paintings, mail art and digital art, while still undergoing treatment. Her paintings are featured on every page of Dragonflyrsquo;s Delights web site as Alice is busy creating and living with joy and gratitude. She is currently busy with Dianne McKenzie creating a daily affirmation card deck, note cards, and a daily journal and a book featuring Alicersquo;s art work with wonderful Messages of Hope #38; Cope. There are also plans for audio recordings and music for those affected by Cancer and itrsquo;s many challenges. Dragonfly's Delights is now gathering positive, hopeful messages: stories, quotes, inspiration #38; art for those who either have cancer, Message of Hope, or for those who are offering support for someone with cancer, Messages of Cope. Through these shared expressions on the Dragonfly's Delights web site, Alice and Edgard want to inspire #38; illuminate those who are touched by living with cancer: to encourage and support them to live a meaningful life to the fullest, with courage, strength and determination. and to inspire them to live a life full of joy, gratitude, hope and well-being. I think you will find my conversation with Alice inspirational and uplifting as we explore her path and story that reveals what it really takes to change the course of onersquo;s path when confronting what appear to be insurmountable odds.

Jeffrey has an enlightening conversation with Bill Siegal, owner and founder of the William Siegal Gallery in Santa Fe. For over thirty years Bill Siegal has been assembling the worldrsquo;s largest collection of fine ancient and antique Andean textiles dating from 750 BC to the 19th Century. His gallery also exhibits ceremonial objects and artifacts from Meso and South American Cultures, as well as objects from Chinarsquo;s Han and Tang Dynasties and Southeast Asia. Distinguished African and Indonesian textiles are also prominently featured. The Gallery opened its new 5,000 square foot exhibition space in May of 2007, in which antiquities are now hung side by side with the works of outstanding contemporary artists, conveying sublime and timeless trans-cultural aesthetics. The gallery is located in Santa Fersquo;s newly revitalized Railyard District, which is rapidly becoming the central locus of Santa Fersquo;s contemporary art scene. In June, Lea Feinstein of ART NEWS said this about the William Siegal Gallery: "With an informed eye, William Siegal has mixed contemporary art with antique textiles and ancient sculptural artifacts in a way that enriches both. In placing the old and new side by side, Siegal took them out of historical context and underscored their graphic analogies." Bill first became involved in textiles in 1971 working with the molas of the Cuna Indians of Panama. In 1974, he made his first trip to Bolivia in search of other textile art forms. He returned to La Paz, Sucre, Cochabamba, and Potosi several times in 1975. The weavings he found were of such technical excellence and beauty, he moved permanently to La Paz to study and collect on a full time basis. By 1977, he was making long journeys throughout the 13,000 ft. high Altiplano with his associates. Using La Paz as a base, they traveled from one village to another buying what was available while learning as much as possible about this incredible and little-known art form. He visited every corner of the Altiplano over the next ten years. In 1988, Bill returned to the U.S. where he continued to study the ceremonial textiles of the Aymara. In May, The Santa Fe Rape Crisis and Trauma Treatment Center produced a monologue series called The Testosterone Testimonials, which was similar to The famed Vagina Monologues by Eve Ensler. In this series of monologues however, the testimonials, as they are called, are self- written by the presenters themselves who were a diverse collection of community leaders from Santa Fe talking about what it means to be a man. The evening presentation was such a smash success that people have not stopped talking about it. Bill Siegal was one of those presenters and gave a remarkable performance of his personal story. I enjoyed his presentation so much that I asked him if he would come on the Salon and perform it for us. He agreed, and so we are fortunate today to be able to hear Bills monologue from that evening as an introduction to the marvelous conversation that follows.
