Durham Art Walk Holiday Market / Durham / Nov 20-21, 2010

Save the dates!

If you are in the Durham area, come out and support your local artists! I will have my line of fine jewelry in metal and wire work. I will be located in the Durham Arts Council (DAC) building, IBM rehearsal hall (lower level), booth #2.

Saturday & Sunday, November 20-21, 2010

Saturday 10 AM-5 PM, Sunday 1-5 PM

The Durham Art Walk Holiday Market is a festive celebration of the arts held in downtown Durham each November, featuring the work of over 200 talented artists in four large downtown venues including the Durham Armory, the Durham Arts Council, Golden Belt and Vega Metals.

Like the Durham Art Walk Spring Market, this event aims to help revitalize downtown Durham by bringing thousands of art lovers for a weekend of art and exploration of all that Durham has to offer. Sip hot cider, enjoy holiday musical performances and great food and find creative, local, handmade gifts for everyone on your holiday list.

Holiday Market visitors can get their purchases gift wrapped by our local nonprofit creative reuse center, The Scrap Exchange. And don’t miss the Burt’s Bees Giving Trees at the Durham Arts Council. See the holiday trees made of recycled materials, donate to the arts and receive a Burt’s Bees ornament filled with artwork or Burt’s Bees products.

This event is free and open to the public. Rain or shine. Take the Bull City Connector on Saturday and on Sunday, free shuttle service is provided. For more information visit www.durhamartwalk.com or call 919-560-ARTS.

The Durham Art Walk is presented and produced by the Durham Arts Council in collaboration with MANY generous community sponsors.

Raleigh Jewelry Art Show, Nov 14, 2009

The Raleigh Jewelry Meetup Group is sponsoring another Jewelry Art Show on Saturday Nov. 14. I am an Assistant Organizer for the group and am organizing this event for us. Participation is open to all current members of the Raleigh Jewelry Meetup Group. The vendor cost for one table is tentatively set at $20, half tables for $10, but will depend on the final number of participants. We will be using a Tai Chi facility on Capital Blvd, north of the 540, so there will be much more space, lots of parking, and better lighting, but we will need to pay a non-refundable venue fee by Sept. 15.

If you are not a member of the Raleigh Jewelry Meetup group, live in the Raleigh/Cary area and are interested in becoming a vendor, please consider joining the group (http://www.meetup.com/raleighjewelry/). Please contact me at ljs0928[at]gmail.com for details on the show.

My First Outdoor Show!

I'm so excited! I just got notified that I am accepted for the Craft Attack 2009 in Charlotte, NC. This will be my first outdoor event and I'm lucky to be sharing a booth with one of my Raleigh Jewelry Meetup buddies (Jill of LivnGoodJewelry) and she has had some experience with doing outdoor shows.

Checkout this list of vendors who will be at the show.

First Jewelry Art Show!

Just wanted to post a few pictures of the show sponsored by our group - Raleigh Jewelry Meetup. It was held in Raleigh August 15 at the Tir Na Nog restaurant. There were 12 of us and for most of us, this was our first experience in showing and selling to the public in person. We all had fun looking over each others displays (getting new ideas for the next show), and "Oohing and Ahhing" over the gorgeous jewelry. And the staff at Tir Na Nog were very attentive - they served us beverages and lunch!
