Photos From Oakridge

Here are some photos from our Oakridge weekend...too bad you can't feel how cold it was!!

Thanks!

Whewww! What a busy couple of weeks! Two weekends ago we were at the Oakridge Festival and last weekend was Ladies Day. Both events went very well and we would like to thank everyone who came to visit. It was very cold at the Oakridge Festival and we appreciate those who bundled up and came out. It went so well that we are planning on setting up in July and October next year. We have some photos of the booth and of Eloise Barrows who braved the cold and painted for a couple of hours. We also have an upcoming Artist of the Month on November 7 that you won't want to miss!
