Working Dinner

Tonight I had my friend and co artist Lynn St. C over for dinner and a brain storming session. My friend Cindy (another artist and friend) couldn't make it because of a paid project she was finishing up. her computer was giving her fits, but she said that she was making progress. After discussing our options for the June 3rd First Friday sponsored by our own Main Street Delaware, we decided that as of this time we just couldn't afford the sponsorship fee. I'm going to write to Main Street Delaware Director Frances Hamilton tomorrow to let her know of our group's decision and that maybe we can work together next year. We're just starting out and right now in this economy $100.00 is a little steep for sponsorship in this community. Since we already have a site we can go ahead for this year with our art show and sale on our own, and hopefully bring more business to the West Winter Street businesses as well. We mapped out our floor plan and Cindy is finishing up our corrected flyers for distribution in our downtown business district. Work is progressing nicely on our displays and now I just need to keep busy working on stock for our show. My Father is working diligently helping me with ideas as well and I really like this, since we have not had that many opportunities to collaborate in recent years. 37 days to go.
