Keynote Speakers
Here’s something to get excited about… one of our keynote speakers is Harriete Estel Berman. Harriete is an artist who works with post- consumer material. She revitalizes mundane recycled tin containers by deconstructing, cutting, folding and reassembling them into extraordinary art works. Harriete often uses humor and irony in her work to comment on Conspicuous consumption as a cultural norm. Visit her beautiful web site to see her work.
