Summertime!

Summer has finally arrived with a drip & some drops! We have had sooo much rain here in north central WV that we are really ready for some sunshine! We have had a wonderful book signing & reading by new artist/author Joey Madia. His new book "The Jester-Knight" is a wonderful fantasy fiction novel with a underlying message of good, especially for teens. He & his wife Tonya are working to create a new Art Center in Fairmont to house their theatre company. Tonya is a delightfully creative artist in her own right with her Sock Monkey O Grams, made with handmade sockmonkey dolls. We are carrying both of their products here in the gallery. We are getting things ready for our one time only a year sale. This year we will be having it on Aug. 29th, Sat. from 10-3. We will be having items up to 75% off. Each artist will be invited to participate & they will be able to determine their own mark off of their art so we will have a large variety of markdowns. This will be a great opportunity to pick up some handcrafted items for Christmas presents, birthdays or anniversaries. Please join us that Saturday. As always, feel free to contact us to ask about any gift giving ideas. We can usually come up with some fun, innovative ways to honor your friends & family with gifts they could not find anywhere else! Have a safe & jubilant 4th of July & don't forget to take a moment to remember those who are serving in harm's way overseas as well as those who didn't come home alive. They are the reason we can celebrate this holiday with such fun & ease.
