                                  resourced communities and schools through free visual arts programs."
                                  With Betsy Rosenfield Gallery preparator John Pakosta and his wife Audrey Johnson.
 John was the first artist I met in Chicago when I was a prospective student at the School of the Art Institute in the spring of 1987   and he was just graduating. His background in science made me instantly relate to his studio process, but his sensitivity and         generous spirit as a person made him a friend.
