@morgfair Sending you love

[Bill Melamed @billmelamed]

A perfect way to celebrate @JRLundblad 50!

[Jamey Lundblad @JRLundblad]

Full of gratitude and joy *again* for this great watercolor painting by #LeeGodie — a super thoughtful 50th birthday gift from my @billmelamed. For as long as we’ve been together (nearly 15 years), we’ve admired the work of this eccentric Chicago street artist. TY, Bill! 😍 ✨ ✨

[Jamey Lundblad @JRLundblad]

It has been truly gratifying to lead the City of Chicago’s fundraising efforts to secure a transformational $6.8 million grant from the @MellonFdn — to create 8 new Chicago monuments that memorialize events and people who historically have been excluded or underrepresented. (1/2)

An ode to Wanås:

Just spent two nights at this boutique hotel and restaurant — in 18th century buildings on the Wanås Estate in the south of Sweden. Nordic simplicity and contemporary elegance in a peaceful setting — with food from the farm, the forest and local producers. (1/2)
