RISD Award
Rhode Island School of Design nominated Scherer to receive this year's Alumni Award for Artistic Achievement 'in recognition of not only the innovative medium of textile she has developed, but also of her thought-provoking investigations of our society's view of aging, reflections on life and death, family relationships, and future generations.'

Her award was presented at the June 5th commencement celebration. Visit the RISD blog.
Mother’s Day Report 2010
May 13, 2010

The Older Women's League featured Scherer's work throughout their 30th anniversary Mother’s Day report titled “End-of-Life Choices: Who Decides?” because 'her images depict end-of-life scenes that illuminate the emotional, personal and striking process of dying.'

OWL invited Scherer to speak during a Capitol Hill policy briefing hosted by Congressman Earl Blumenauer. Now that comprehensive health reform law is in place, it's time to put end-of-life issues at the center of our health care conversations. To see the report visit: www.owl-national.org
