We are still seeking volunteers. From load-in to break down, the event logistics of Art in Autumn are seamlessly executed by an amazing group of volunteers from the business community as well as the greater Weaverville community. Our goal is to make the artist’s experience in our town as positive as possible. Each volunteer receives a free Art in Autumn t-shirt in appreciation for their efforts!

Well, its the end of the day on Wednesday, and for some reason Mike and I took the day to finish up what we started yesterday..moving and rearranging many of the big displays of glass around the shop. We also planned some fun demos for the weekend, and got confirmation that Cakes by Jane in Weaverville will be doing a cake sampling during the day Saturday…YUM!
Had a nice visit from two of our favorite customers, the Schwartzes, who bought a pretty bowl to send to a friend in Colorado for a housewarming…and Mike worked in the studio garden, planting more beans and peas and lots of sunflowers…a beautiful day in “the country” at the end of Main St in Weaverville..(:
