August 2012 First Friday

Please help the Studio for First Friday August by bringing in just a couple pieces of your jewelry.  Suzi will have her EZ-Up tent at the Studio and it will be outside for First Friday with lights and the pop up tables.  We would like to have the FSGNW bargain jewelry/beads out in the Tent with class brochures and someone out there steering people into the Studio/Gallery. The shelves with the bargain jewelry will need MEMBER jewelry.

If you want to display/sell or donate items to the sales table, please contact Suzi Kamin.

2 6′ Glass display cases with shelves – wired for lights. $100 each. Contact Suzi Kamin to view and purchase.

Thank you Clarence Jackson and Jonah Gwinn for moving the FSGNW glass display cases back to FSGNW on Friday.  They lifted the case onto roll-a-bouts and with great difficulty pushed, lifted and rolled the case down Industrial Avenue in the heat and rain of the day.
