Guild Picnics Start This Weekend
Different potluck picnics will have show-and-tells, mold exchanges and bargaining tables but all are a chance to talk glass in-person with fellow artists. Everyone would love to see your latest project or hear plans for your next one. See the individual event listings for details. Friends, spouses and anyone interested in glass is welcome but please contact the host in advance: setting up more chairs etc. after guests have begun to arrive is much more difficult than setting up the right number in advance.

July 14, Keyport WA (Kitsap Peninsula, west of Seattle) 1 to 3 pm hosted by Fred Buxton and Loraine Wolff at their waterfront studio. Fred will be grilling burgers, please bring a side dish. If you have some recent work for show and tell bring that too. Carpool if you can, because parking is limited.
July 28, Seattle, WA 11 am to 2 pm hosted by Karen Seymour, one block west of the Seattle Zoo in her shady back yard. there will be a mold exchange as well as a show and tell of recent work.
August 11, Battle Ground WA (N of Vancouver WA) 11 am to 3 pm hosted by Gail Haskett. In addition to the potluck food, her big covered patio will have tables set up to help you trade or sell your unwanted materials for something you do want.
August 24, Fairview OR (NE of Portland) noon to 3 pm hosted by Margie Reiff in Fairview, Oregon’s Welsh Park on Fairview Lake. In addition to the potluck food, bring something for the show and tell. Getting together again in this cool lakeside space will be so much fun!
