Kristy,
Seems that I may have stumbled, however, if you know “who I suspect to be” the first person to post in this thread, could you please say hello from Todd and tell him to shot me an email. I can be reached at *.etcoutdoors.com and would love to catch up. Anyways, if this post is misdirected, peace and the best to to yourself and the community that makes Portland such a cool place to be.

Kristy: I remember meeting you for the first time when you came to talk at a film class I was taking and I thought: Wow! Who’s that?! I’ve gotta meet her. Thanks for saying yes to coffee, for introducing me to your mother and for being such a inspiration to me. Until soon, Gigi.

Kristy: What a journey it has been. From those long ago days at the art museum to blocks of ice melting and being belted to the big adventure which is pica. Portland cannot thank you enough and I bet those good folks down under appreciate the treasure they now can claim. I wish you and your family a wildly happy life and know that you will stay in touch.
My very best to you,
Eloise

Kristy,
Rather than a long good-bye…let me say I can’t wait until you return someday, still wise, still wry, and still intense as ever.
Kick ass in Melbourne!

p.s. We never had dinner here. Maybe the other side of the big pond?

Kristy,
Since three years I speak about my life in terms of a pre- and a post-pica era. It’s like everything changed after those 5 months in Portland. And I realize that during this adventure, you were always there -at the side or in the center. From being my ‘boss’ and ‘master’ to being the silent mediator in my complicated love affairs… I know that if there is one person to thank for this great experience, it’s you!
The way I would like to thank you is with a by now legendary quote in Belgium that our friends Gregg and Gary like to shout after great day… It’s a ‘Thank you’ for the past, a ‘Yes’ to the future, an ode to a city, an ‘I love you’ to the world. It’s maybe THE three words that connect me with Portland and maybe they are also the three words that connect you with the world. Kristy, here’s…

Kristy,
Thank you so much for all you have brought to our city, as a curator, as an arts advocate, as a wonderful artist in your own right, as a visionary, and as someone who has had the insight and guts to challenge all of us to think in new and expansive ways about how we integrate art into the fabric of our lives and our community. You have energized us, you have inspired us, you have given us wonderful gifts. I will miss your heart, mind and spirit, and yet i look forward to many uears of PICA. Best wishes in your new endeavor–and don’t be a stranger to Portland.
With admiration and affection, your friend,
Michael

I’ve been here for only 5 of your past 10 years, and I don’t think I knew how good it’s been. I hope the decades (!) to come are as fruitful a vision for Portland as what has become apparent to me in 5.

Thanks for helping me see that presenters and artists can be curious, passionate, generous, human, and heroic. Thanks for your openness and sharp mind without the sharp exclusivity. Thanks for coming to my senior thesis. Thanks for being in the audience and making spaces for new audiences. Thanks for opening your house and your art up to all of us and thanks for being yourself, unapologetically. You are amazing. And this town is lucky that we have a good role model to remember as we get down to business while you are elsewhere. Good luck, have a safe journey and I’ll be thinking of you — Love, Emily
