Our own Carnegie Mellon graduate, Raymond Kaskey,

         is the principal artist of the WWII Memorial, Washington, DC.  

           He has given us a tour of his work on Veteran's Day, 2005.

            The event included an informative tour of the monument,

             transportation to his studio for a studio tour, slide lecture,

                talk by the bronze caster, and a beautiful reception.

 

 

Thank you to Ray and Sherry Kaskey, Carnegie Mellon University, both the office of Alumni Relations with Terry Rosenberg,  and the head of Art Department , Susanne Slavic, who graciously presented at the event.  We thank our DC Metropolitan Chapter President, David Calvo, and all the alumni who worked on this event,  especially our logistics expert and all around adviser, Timothy Liu.  A hugh thank you to Shelby Belle and Occasions Caterers for an aesthetically presented and delicious buffet. And of course we appreciate all of our participating and attending alumni and their guests, and everyone who made the day not only possible but a wonderful success!
