Day two had a little less sunshine than the first day of our show and sale. By noon a little rain began, and just kept persisting. A couple of our artists had items that just can't take moisture, and needed to pack up a little early. The rest hung in there until 3 pm and a few more needed to leave. The remaining artists stayed till 5 pm, and are going to set up for Monday, July 1st for a third day of Outdoor Art Show fun!
We are letting the weather be our guide, and in the morning I'll update everyone on the start time. At the moment, we're shooting for 10 am.

Here are some photos from Sunday, June 30th during the outdoor show and sale.

I can count the hours on my fingers and thumbs for the kickoff to our 5th Annual Outdoor Art Show and Sale in Markerville. Vendor setup starts at 8 am Saturday, June 29th, and we’ll be ready for the public at 10 am.

We’ve already marked out the spots where the artist tents go, and even got a head start on some of the setup where possible. Big Blue Barn Designs has already parked her eclectic little trailer and started organizing for the morning. Some of the tent frames have been positioned and are waiting for their canopies and tables.

And don’t worry, Betty Brown Caskey, #KloheCat is holding your spot for you!
