Read MoreMarin IJ: Life as a Retired Man in Mill Valley
“Babies are everywhere in Mill Valley. I imagine in my previous work-life schedule I didn’t see them all. Or perhaps there are just more of them? Either way, babies can be seen in carriages pushed by either moms, dads or nannies. The problem is they are pushed in the streets. Sidewalks are not always an option because they’re often blocked and/or difficult to push a carriage on. I missed all the baby action when I worked. Arriving home well past baby bedtimes made certain carriage pushing was not on my radar. So, if you want to see some Mill Valley babies, get out during the day — just be careful driving!”

Amy Torgeson is an artist working in printmaking and collage, and she’s been chosen as the Mill Valley Chamber’s selection as Artist of the month for March!

In addition to her artistic practice, she has spent over a decade teaching writing and art through arts organizations and after-school programs. She now leads art workshops in her Sausalito studio at ICB/ART. ArtWalk is next Tuesday, March 4th from 5:30-7:30 pm.
Read MoreThe Newly Arrived Chandler Gallery at 108 Throckmorton Presents Their Inaugural Exhibition, ‘Position / Disposition,’ on View March 1–April 12th – Artist Reception Sat., March 1, 5-7pm, All Are Welcome
This exhibition was drawn together to celebrate this place, the nexus and driving force behind Chandler Gallery. Chandler Gallery begins because of a space. Occupying the location that was previously and iconically Seager Gray Gallery, Chandler Gallery came to be through the forward thinking of Donna Seager and Suzanne Gray. Knowing the magic of their space, and the loss the community would feel upon their closing, they sought someone who could carry their vision forward. Committed to keeping the space a place for contemporary arts and the Mill Valley community, Seager and Gray approached Chandler Simpson, a former director of Maya Frodeman Gallery, previously Tayloe Piggott Gallery in Jackson, Wyoming, living in the Bay Area.
