Museum School Sale

Arkansas Arts Center Museum School Sale
November 21, 2009
9 am to 4 pm
Arkansas State Fairgrounds
Hall of Industry

Every year all of the students of the museum school are invited to show their wares in this
sale. This is a really great place to find unique and handmade items for Christmas gifts or
for yourself.

While attending classes you don't get to see what the other students are making. I am looking
forward to seeing what the pottery people have made this year. Wonderful artwork and photography. Woodwork and glass work. Sculpture too! My friend Diana Ashley will have some of her wonderful sculptures. And not to forget JEWELRY. ( hint, hint )

Hope to see lots of people!
