| Art in the Barn 2014 |
It seems it was a reprise. We were there last year and it dumped rain. We took the girls in 2014, as well: Babysitting: Day 2 –Art in the barn, more rain.
Josee made herself a barn, with art!
We'll be grandsitting in a couple of weeks. I'll have to dream up some activities for them.
Art in the Barn
Art in the Barn has free admission and free parking. That's a great deal! There are two buildings, including the big barn. It is often the host for festivals.The paintings, scultures, etc., are by amateurs, and professionals alike. Although, I figure once you sell one, you are a pro! It is a volunteer-driven organisation. The paintings seem to start at $300. Some caught my fancy, but we'd have to sell some of our prints to make some room.
In the meantime, we both bid on some auction items. I always do, since it boosts revenue. Hubby won a gift certificate to C.C.'s which we frequent, frequently. I bid on some paint supplies. There was some nice art, some great art, and some interesting multimedia art.
It is a large barn, with a leaky roof. They need $2000 to fix it, but they do not have it. A bit of a problem. In the meantime, they are having their brick post rebuilt. More on that anon.

Hello, looks like a great event a nice way to support the local artists. Happy Tuesday, enjoy your day!
What a great display, and lots of different goodies to bid for. Hope they can get that roof fixed before your winter.

Crikey, is it already a year since you were here before??? phew... YAM xx
Fun event! i would definitely enjoy it.
Hopefully ventures like this help get the money for the roof. It's a great setting for art.
It's surprising how good the local stuff can be.
