Here Kay and I are at the artist's REception held the end of February. It was quite the party. We really didn't know what to expect when we went. There were a lot of people there, all the artists that had been chosen, the SEK Artfest committe, underwriters of the project, and the press. There was wine, cheese, fruit, cookies and cupcakes. We felt a little overwhelmed.
There were placards on the table highlighting the artists who have been chosen. Here is our picture and bio. We found out that night that the coal buckets would arrive around March 22. Don't we look excited? We had to have our picture taken by a professional photographer that night too. Lorri couldn't make it so it was just Kay and I.
We don't have an underwriter yet. The mystery continues. Below is a drawing of what the coal buckets will look like.
The SEK ARt Fest committe held a short presentation outlining the plans and congratulating the artists. We were in such talented company. Did I mention we felt a little overwhelmed? They also had a slide show introducing all the artists with a sample of their work. Ours featured one of Kay's quilts. it was really exciting. We visited with a couple of the other artists, and went home anxiously awaiting our coal bucket. The adventure continues!
Next, sneak preview of the coal buckets!
