more 2nd saturday fun!

Just wanted to post some photos of our last two events.

In August, we hosted an opening for Jen McCleary, a local artist who does collage, digitally manipulated imagery and jewelry. Shakey Lyman belted out the blues and vendors enjoyed the clear bright sunshine outside.

In September, the dreary weather kept a few vendors away, but Nora did manage to score some awesome baby leg warmers. Our featured artist, Sara Selepouchin of Girls Can Tell, showed visitors her screenprinting process and even debuted a new diagram, “knitting”. Kassie Richardson played some old-time favorites and some of her own tunes to a rapt audience.

We’re really excited about October’s event, coming up on the 10th. Jeweler Kim Fraczek will bring her torch and do some glassblowing. In the store, no lie. She can even do custom pieces, like encapsulating something in a pod, like this.

We’ll also have jazz guitarist Jonathan York as well as a diverse assortment of vendors on the triangle. Snacks too. See you then, OK?
