Next week’s events

It’s a week of regrouping as my muscles recover from the Ravenswood ArtWalk and I review inventory for the upcoming Makers Market here in Evanston.

This week, you can visit my swarm at the Flora Fauna and Fascination Exhibit. Ice House Gallery is located at 609 South Blvd. in Evanston. Hours are Friday-Saturday 12-6pm and Sunday 12-5pm, or by appointment via 847-232-7092.

Meanwhile, I spotted amazing art during the Nasty Women drop off. The Nasty Women Evanston Fundraiser is Saturday, September 28, from 6 to 8 pm at 1100 Florence Avenue for one night only. Walk in with $100, walk out with a piece of art! Cash and credit card payment will be accepted for artwork and any additional donations. There may also be smaller items available for sale, and a donation jar for smaller bills.

The Evanston Made Makers Market is held in conjunction with Evanston Oktoberfest. I will bring my car and my wares up to the fifth floor of Maple Street Garage (1800 Maple), where numerous makers will showcase their creations. This is the garage closest to the movie theater, and the Oktoberfest Schunkelmusik will be playing in the downstairs parking lot where the farmers market is held. Join us from 12- 6 pm on Sunday, September 29. Grab a brewskie, take the elevator up, and support local artists of all ages. Enter from Maple Avenue at Clark Street or University Place.
