Well, well, my
So sharpen those pencils and write this information down:
Tacoma Artist Craft Fair from noon to 4 p.m. Nov. 15 at King’s Books.
This event is being presented by a brand new organization called
Sweet!
The concept for
This specific craft fair will be a fund-raiser for Colleen Malone, who is the sister of Laura Malone of Monsoon Room and general Hilltop fame. I’m so sad to say that Colleen is undergoing treatment for thyroid cancer, and she is uninsured, which means she could really use our help.
And the Tacoma Artist Craft Fair will be the perfect way to do so.
This function will include so many of our region’s finest artists and various mediums. Here’s just a little sampler of these artistic sensations.
Zachary Marvick will be selling paintings.
Eli Hansen will sell glass.
Holly Weiman (I miss you, Holly!) will offer sweet cake plates that she makes out of plates, glasses and so on.
Joe Miller will be in the house from M-space.
Jessica Balsam will feature drawings.
Laurie Cinotto will be creating art, arranging flowers and wrangling kitties.
Representatives from LULU and Goldies will also be selling their goods.
And last, but certainly never least, Ryan Loiselle: You’d better be there!
Throughout the course of this event, you can expect a raffle, a bake sale, a silent auction, spontaneous poetry, miniature love notes and more.
To get specific about where your money will go, the support that comes in through the raffle and auction will go to Colleen, and the artists will keep what they make, but something tells me that knowing these artists, several of them will also make donations to assist Colleen in her time of need.
I know that economic times are tough,
Please hang in there, Colleen.
