Lindsay Obermeyer Obituary
Obermeyer, Lindsay B.
Entered into rest on Saturday, July 4, 2020, after a valiant fight (her fourth) with cancer. A graduate of the prestigious Art Institute of Chicago, BFA, and the University of Washington - Seattle, MFA, Lindsay was a fiercely prolific artist on many textile mediums. Her work was featured around the world, most notably at the Boston Museum of Fine Arts and more recently, her collaborations with physicians were collected by several medical foundations.
Dearest mother of Emily Obermeyer; beloved daughter of Charles and the late Louise (Towles) Obermeyer; dear sister of Charles Obermeyer; special friend of Maria K. Molzahn, Andrew Turner, and Nancy Ferriss; dear friend to many.
True to your spirit, Lindsay, you waited for the fireworks to light your path forward.

I am so sad to hear of Lindsay's passing. I was her summer apprentice in Chicago 14 years ago, while I was still in college at KU. She taught me a lot about beadwork, knitting, and most importantly was candid about life as an artist - teaching me about grant writing, teaching, and gallery submissions. Her work was beautiful and essence of resiliency, much like herself. I will miss her, but it gives me comfort that her work will live on.
