Busy Bran- Upcoming shows & classes

It's been a busy spring! 

Last weekend was the East Buntyn Art walk, which was excellent weather, despite predictions to the contrary. It's one of my favorite shows to vend as the people that come and wander the historic neighborhood are some of the friendliest folks i've met, but i miss being one of those wandering. :) The commemorative wine glass this year was PURPLE!! and i was able to replace the broken blue one from last year so i have the complete set of them from years i've been a vendor. (OCD nerd problems)

This weekend is the Vollentine Evergreen Art walk and the MAGS gem and mineral show, so i'll be busy both Saturday and Sunday. Hopefully, i'll sell a bunch of stuff Saturday so i can buy lots of rocks Sunday. :) 

Next weekend is the Tennessee Crafts Spring Show in Centennial Park, Nashville. It's Friday, May 1st through Sunday, May 3rd and i'm the chapter coordinator for the SW chapter, so i'll be set up with 2 other members of the SW chapter in the Emerging Makers tent. We will be joined by two artists from another chapter, including an artist with amazing turned bowls, so keep an eye out for pictures and if you're in the Nashville area, stop by and enjoy a variety of amazing arts and crafts by some of Tennessee's finest (and surrounding states)



The TN Craft spring show is my last show, as of right now, for the spring season. I'll be turning my focus back to my classes- the May class at the Botanic Gardens is going to be a fun technique class on using the jeweler's saw. June's will be combining metal clay and glass. In July, I'll be out at the Appalachian Center for Craft teaching a mold making/texture making weekend workshop with metal clay. I'm excited about all the cool stuff that is possible in a longer class- I always try to put too much into my 1 day workshops and have to scale them back a bit. :)
