Fairytale Fundraising

Most everyone here knows about my book groups and workshops. And most everyone here knows about my fund raising programs, which include a selection of my needle and wet felted art, handcrafted masks, puppets, hand dyed playsilks, and other fun things; and carefully chosen companies' products that further nurture children's creativity, with a portion of all sales donated to local organizations.

Now I have the opportunity to offer both in one, with a Fairy Tale Theme.

Invite your favorite adults over for a "Fairytales and Cocktails Party" (or mocktails, if you prefer), a fun and festive evening that starts as I share books and lead a discussion of the enduring power of fairy tales, followed by the chance to purchase a selection of titles we have talked about. A portion of those sales will then be donated to the cause or event of your choice. 

 Please talk to me about adding yours to my list, or contact me about larger fund raisers; possible through performances, on-site vending, the sale of specific art through my etsy shops, or through Barefoot Books Book Fairs, catalog or on-line ordering.

Art Cards

   
How very incredible is it to be able to say, "Oh! I have a business networking event coming up...guess it's time to paint some new cards!" Stop by my table at the Belfast area 'Best of the Best' event, Monday August 18th from 5pm - 8pm at the University of Maine Hutchinson Center, and take home your own free little piece of original Storyteller Moon art...which just happens to have some of my business information on the back! :) A silent auction will take place from 5:30pm to 7:30pm, and you'll have a chance to bid on some other items from Storyteller Moon, Mothers Moon, and Barefoot On The Moon.

Flapper!

Recycled Shakespeare Company actor Jakob Sutton (you may remember him as Lysander in Midsummer Night's Dream) will be appearing on stage at Lakewood Theater this month in the *Teen, Tech & Tour* production of Tim Kelly's 'Flapper' under the direction of Midge Merrill Pomelow of Midge's Theatre Arts Studio
First performance will be Saturday July 12th at 10am, with tickets available at the box office one hour before showtime. Then after a week of touring the musical numbers from the show at numerous convalescent & nursing homes in central Maine, they return to perform again upon the main stage Saturday July 19th at 10am.

 

Disclaimer: Jakob also just happens to be my son

Teacher Appreciation Week!

I had an absolutely wonderful walk to the mailbox this morning to find it half full of cards and notes from former 'students' celebrating *me* during teacher appreciation week! I feel so honored! Artful cards from the young, notes from students of ago updating me on their new projects, and even cards of thanks from fellow teachers sharing how they are using methods from my workshops in their own classrooms! Thank you one and all!
