Well there is a lot going on as usual-

Today started with a phone interview with Adorn Magazine they are doing an article on me with a project and an interview-- should be cool.

I have been involved with a group that is calling itself "Craft Congress"-- which is mostly just indie craft fair organizers who are going to meet up and talk about running shows, promotions, sponsors, etc. there has been a lot of discussion with-in the group in regards to corporate sponsorship and I just ran across this blog entry from redefiningcraft.com Dennis is talking about Toyota and their move to do a traveling craft fair in "true" d.i.y. fashion.

I have to be honest and say this makes me feel a little sick to my stomach knowing that if corporations start doing there own fairs, who will come to us little guys shows?

Speaking of shows, we have solidified the dates for the Fall Art vs. Craft-- the application is going live on Friday but if you are reading this you will be the first to know that our dates are November 4th & 5th

Off to do my mock-ups for Adorn and then to band practice.....

Oh, don't forget it's Gallery Night here in Milwaukee this Friday-- more on that soon, but we are having our Grand Opening party!!
