Thousand Springs Art Festival


We had wonderful weather at Thousand Springs this weekend! We could get anything from wind, cold blowing rain, to sunny and warm. We were lucky!

We brought sculptures, "build your own" sculptures, garden charms. We also brought saki sets so people could be reminded that I also make functional pottery.

Ed thought we should display the garden charms on the mug tree. He had a good idea, since the couple of charms we hung from the tent frame were harder to see. There was a good turnout to the event, despite the many events scheduled in the Boise area. The women's "race for the cure" was Saturday AM, as well as many pregame events for Boise State Broncos. We talked to many artists who said their sales were down 50% from 2 years ago, due to the economy. Even though we went there to sell and make money, going to an event that raises money (from booth fees) to preserve the historical land around the Snake River. is worth the trouble of going.
