Scenes from the July 19th Dublin Art Show, WAAL was invited to participate.
Thanks to Dennis Zimmerman for coordinating with our membership and the Dublin
Art League. We especially want to thank all the artists who participated and
those who made it possible for us to set up, man the tent and do the take down.
Our new banner was featured on the front of the tent to tell all the world we
were there. We had about 25 artists represented with paintings, photographs,
prints, cards and jewelry. There were some significant sales, and Katie Fowle
was doing a great job of keeping track of the purchase records. Some of our
members also had their own booths. Jim Glover, Janet Waggoner, Bob Tanner ,
Vivian Ripley, and Kevin Willis took on the big effort of having a booth with
all the work that is involved in setting up a solo effort.
The tent was huge and we had a length of racks right down the middle with
paintings hanging on both sides. Along the edges of the tent were tables and
racks with additional art. The weather was just a tad on the warm side but we
all had a great time.
