We are so excited about the Fall season and finding more and more opportunities for our artisans to share their beautiful products with the masses! We are hoping you can get involved this season through giving, hosting a trunk show, or helping us spread the word. It takes a village, and we are happy you are a part of ours. Please get in touch so we can find the right place for you to get involved.

Join us Thur Aug 28 4-7pm for a fun and crafty volunteer event! We are looking for volunteers to help us turn some handwoven pieces into yoga straps. No prior sewing experience required, wine and snacks provided!
Our program could not exist without an amazing roster of volunteers who help with a wide range of services for the program and artisans. We need help with product development, staffing sales events, administrative tasks, and other behind-the-scenes fun. We will be hosting a Sales Training EventSat 9/6 11:30am-1:30pm for current and new volunteers to help everyone understand how to make an event a success. We will include our artisans in the training, and host a mock event where we set up product with test customers! The event will be at our studio:
Day Art Shop at Baker Ripley Neighborhood Center
