Each year Renita and I organize a Craft Show. The purpose of the show is to allow the crafters in our rv park to display their craft/art, (what the difference between Crafts and Arts is that the term craft is used to denigrate traditional women’s work/skills).
This year we had eight people who requested tables, (one of our usual persons had a bad harvest of maple syrup and did not attend). Still, we filled all the tables with everyone’s work and had a good turnout. Not everyone sells, and this show gives all the opportunity to share their passions.
Of course, we set up our usual two tables. Pam and Roy also filled two tables.
Sue’s table was filled with her oyster jewelry and Jim sold both rough slabs and his own wirework and cabochons, (I taught him how to wire wrap).
One new person, Renee and filled her table with her beautiful handmade quilts
. Diana’s work is always appreciated, her work includes silverware holders that many use for our weekly buffets.
Joe, who age is in upper eighties/lower nineties has started a new passion and makes art by splashing paint on blank canvases he purchases at a local retailer. He sold eleven pieces of his work!
A new person, Kay offers wellness classes and Maureen sells skin care products.
All in all, it was a great chance for all of us to spread the word about what we do, besides fishing. Clear skies
Looks like a great show. Stay safe and healthy.
