Dogwood Arts Festival Artist's Marketplace Recap

Allan and I had a fantastic time at the Dogwood Art's Artist's Marketplace which ran from April 11th through 13th. Our booth location was superb, right across from Abode and Trio (very difficult working the booth watching people relax with great food and drink) and even though our tent blew up on Saturday afternoon and the weather was less than appealing on Sunday our spirits couldn't be dampened. We thoroughly enjoyed meeting everyone who visited out booth and especially those who liked my fused glass creations. If you put your name and e-mail address in the sign-up book in the booth you will be receiving an e-newsletter in May and if you aren't already signed up for it, please send me your name and e-mail address to sassyglass@comcast.net to be added. The newsletter will have the Sassy Glass art show schedule, new products and designs, as well as a class schedule for Beginner Fusing and Advanced Fusing which I plan to begin offering this summer (dependent upon interest).

Allan and I are headed to The Art Market at Historic Honey Horn on Hilton Head Island, SC this weekend and we are looking forward to the warm weather as well as a visit from our Jacksonville, FL friends, Carol and Denise. Mary Jane (former Sassy Glass Studio artist and my sister-in-law) and her husband, Allen, will be putting us up for the weekend and MJ might even stop by the show and check out how the "new face" of Sassy Glass Studio is doing. She certainly doesn't miss the early rising and the long hours of an art show. Nothing better than a great art show with friends and family around to keep your enthusiasm up after a long day!
