S.P.O.R.E. Projects, sponsor of the mobile gallery pictured above, is the brainchild of the amazing and talented Emily Hemeyer. Emily is one of those people who makes things happen anywhere she goes, and the mobile gallery — a repurposed white minivan — potentially has extended her reach across the entire nation. The thought of Emily reaching the entire nation is intriguing. There are so many connections to make in St. Louis, between St. Louis and other places, and between people in other places – and it seems that Emily is going to make as many of these happen as possible.  –Michael R.
