Changing Spaces

The Three Rivers Veterans Memorial Building is a regular location for art and craft bazaars. I’ve been participating here for many years in many different places in the building.

This was in 2011, along the wall. I’ve learned to not overload my space and overwhelm the visitors with so many paintings.
Whatever year this was, my booth was in the center of the room.
This one was along the wall.
2014 was consumed by the book “The Cabins of Wilsonia”, which the printer failed to deliver as promised in time for this show; so, I just took all my extra knitted items to sell, along with my usual cards, Mineral King tee shirts, a friend’s knitting and another friend’s lavender. This is the same corner space that I had last weekend.
This window location is a common space given to me and we’ve learned to deal with the bulky drapery in the way by scrunching it together using a bungee cord. That big banner is now gone – just got worn out.
The windows provide wonderful natural light, especially in the springtime.
Spring of this year: the big round table has been useful through the years but does take up a lot of space in the roughly 10×10′ space.
This year I set up the space this way. No more large round table.
It was a good location, because when people entered the building, they immediately saw my colorful table with affordable items on the right side.

Every year I have slightly different merchandise, different paintings, different ideas for display, and it presents a new puzzle each time. It is all part of the business of art in Three Rivers.

Friday and Saturday I will be in another new space here in Three Rivers, NOT in the Memorial Building.
