Thousand Cranes Studio also exhibited information about the studio's efforts, in conjunction with YMCA of Ridgewood, NJ, to raise funds to fight malaria in Southern Senegal, West Africa. A 2$ donation will purchase mosquito netting, which is the first defense against malaria, and can save a life. Nets will be delivered in person by a group of YMCA staff and youth in June of this year. For more information about purchasing artwork or supporting the malaria project, please contact the studio at 789-1039.

Gallery Walls Nature Photography of Lauretta Gregorie
Lauretta’s interest in photography began as a young model, working for well known local photographer, F. Newhall. While she posed for him, he would talk about lighting and how to create good composition. She applied what she learned, and turned what began as a hobby, into her life’s passion. “I love to play with the light, to capture sunlight dancing on the water or a crimson sunset,” says Gregoire. “I don’t digitally alter my photographs. I still use a 35MM. I like the challenge of capturing something beautiful or fascinating, just as it is.”
