Brett and Susan screenprinted the posters and swag bags yesterday. They are totally fantastic! If you know the perfect place for one of these limited edition posters, let us know! Or better yet- stop by Tomte to pick up a couple to hang. We only have about 40 of these beauties, so we’d like to have them in fabulous locations were lots of people will see them.

And don’t forget to drop off you swag bag donations! Or if you’re not a maker be onethe first to arrive to the Ballyhoo to snag one of these jems. If you aren’t one of the lucky few to get a swag bag, there will be a screenprinting demo where you will have the opportunity to print your own bag (swag bag goodies excluded).

Art by Craft: The October gallery show looks to explore craft techniques applied to an art installation setting. We are open to any craft medium, the term ‘craft’ being loosely applied. Examples include knit, sewn, or quilted pieces, ceramic or metal work. Also, traditional art techniques applied to a craft setting in mixed media pieces are encouraged. We are really open and looking to the crafters and artists to interpret the theme.

Opening reception for Art by Craft show: October 2nd, 6-9pm
First craft fair: October 24th, 2-8pm

Applications are open until September 18th. Download pdf application and details here.
