In 2010, Rachel exhibited new work at the Broadway Gallery in New York and Nina Torres Gallery in Miami during “Art Basel”  as part of the United States Biennial Artists Exhibition.  Rachel’s Wonders work will be on display at the American Association for the Advancement of Science in Washington, D.C.through February of 2012.
