  • 20180420  The Bechtler Museum of Modern Art held it's ninth annual fundraising gala Friday, April 20th.<br />
Attendance at 'Icon: The 2018 Gala' makes the Bechtler More than a Museum, and supports programs such as Jail Arts Initiative, Low to No Vision, Museum Memories, InReach and Artists in Schools. We believe there should be no barriers to entry for audiences that have traditionally been underserved by the visual arts community.<br />

  • 20110818 Debi Metcalfe, of Shelby, N.C., never meant to become an activist. She and her husband, Harold, were just another family with a few well-loved pleasure horses until September 1997, when Harold’s mare, Idaho, disappeared. In hunting for Idaho, Debi found that no structured, centralized resource for victims of horse theft existed. This was pre-Internet, so she blanketed the U.S. with fliers and reached out to every horse dealer, law enforcement officer, and auction house that would listen. And 51 weeks later, her efforts paid off. But she vowed that no other victim would have to face such a traumatic experience alone and NetPosse.com was born. This modern-day posse uses the speed and networking power of the Internet to spread the word about stolen horses. www.lauramuellerphotography.com
