Crazy Autumn Art & Craft Show

The ShowMe Etsy street team is putting on our first show this week. The Crazy Autumn Art & Craft Show will be Thursday, October 16, from 5-9 pm at SqWires Annex in Historic Lafayette Square.

This show will be a great way to get holiday shopping done early. In addition to lots of vendors who have shops on Etsy, the show will also include special guest artists Big Small Town Designs and MFA students from the Sam Fox School of Design and Visual Arts at Washington University. This show will offer a little bit of everything, from fine art paintings and photography to unique jewelry to fiber arts to handmade cards and much much more.

In addition to all of this handmade art and craft goodness, there will be free cheese and crackers and a cash bar. Also, there will be a free raffle to win one of four gift baskets stuffed with handmade items made by the show participants. Don't miss out on this great opportunity to pick up one-of-a-kind, handmade gifts!

Concert for Conservation

Members of the ShowMeEtsy street team will have several booths/tables at the Concert for Conservation on Saturday, July 12, 7 pm, at the Lucas School House. In addition, participating members are donating items for a raffle to raise additional money for The Nature Conservancy.

Playing at the Concert for Conservation will be The Mosby Group and Students of Imrat Khan. Todd Mosby appeared recently on Cityscape on KWMU and Stumble in the Dark on KDHX, where he talked about the concert and his music.

The mission of The Nature Conservancy is "to preserve the plants, animals and natural communities that represent the diversity of life on Earth by protecting the lands and waters they need to survive." Tickets for the Concert for Conservation are $10 in advance and $12 day of show. A matching donation will be made for every ticket purchased.

Attending this event is a great way to help a good cause, hear some great music, check out some local artisans, and meet members of the ShowMeEtsy team. We hope to see you there!
