sea scene. Agnes was approved unanimously.
- Jason Hall was
juried for wire art. He demonstrated by wire
wrapping marbles into a shape. He will make
hanging mobiles, magnets, fan pulls, etc. He
also wished to make jewelry and was told absolutely no jewelry of any type. No lapel pins, earrings, necklaces, bracelets,
anklets or pendants. Nothing that could be
worn as jewelry. He was approved by a four (4) to one (1) vote.
- Michele Wildflower
was juried to do Body care products. She
showed us her invoices, her raw products and her finished products. She was willing to show up how she makes her soap
but the wind was too much for the stove to hold a flame. She makes all of her products by
mixing different natural products together and makes all of her own labels. Michele also
asked to jury for jewelry and was told no jewelry of any type would be allowed. Michele
was approved unanimously.
- Sharona Avssao was
juried for collaged switch plates. She
demonstrated by arranging pieces of cut up art work together, covering it with a glue type
solution to keep it from wearing off and holding it onto the light switch plate and then
cutting out the hole for the switch. Sharon was approved by a three (3) to (2) vote. She
needs to pay her $20.00 fee prior to her first set up on the pier.
- Robert Goldwitz
was juried for photography. He showed the
committee an album of his photos. He does all
of his work with a digital camera. He did not
bring the camera or a CD of his work to show to us. The
committee discusses this and decided to take it to the Board of Directors for a decision. We all feel that digital work is acceptable but we
would like the Board to give us their in put on the matter.
Robert did not pay the jury fee. If
the Board does give their approval on Wednesday we would like to home jury Robert in order
to see his camera, CD’s of his photo’s prior to him being allowed to set up on
the pier.
- Robert Young sent
in samples of his copper metal sculptures. He
makes pictures and frames them as well as many other types of copper work. He was approved unanimously. No fee was collected
since this is an add a product.
A discussion was held among the PC members to place a cap on jewelry
for the remainder of the year. Also the PC
would like to approach the Board with some guidelines for placing caps on products. A suggestion is 25-30% of any one category of
items for a period of time would trigger a cap on those categories. The PC will present this suggestion to the Board
on Wednesday.
Meeting was adjourned at 11:15 a.m.
Addendum: Sharona Avssao
paid $20.00 to Barb on 2-20-07. Barb passed
money on to Ann S. and she wrote a receipt for $120.00 jury fees.
