@risd1877 alumna @jeannettefossasfinejewelry is heading out with me on the penultimate leg of a weeklong trip to SF and LA. We had a wonderful time out here. Alum and parents are excited for RISD’s next steps. Alumni Receptions? Check. Meet-and-greets? Check. Studio visits? Check. Great weather, good food, and extraordinary people? Check, check, check. Thank you all for a wonderful first Cali trip!! And special thanks to Jeannette Fossa whose jewlery is so divine—lots of compliments on your artistry! Now off to dinner with one of RISD’s Trustees, the amazing @ilenechaiken of The L Word, Empire, and the Handmaid’s Tale.
