Show Opportunity in Akron- Sunday August 14th

Cleveland Handmade team member Brit Charek of holdenallan.etsy.com is helping to organize an event in Akron on Sunday, August 14th at
Studio 526 right across from Thirsty Dog Brewing Co. The plan is: open the doors and start selling at noon, along with artwork on display on the gallery side, then around 7pm there will be bands performing.

She is hoping to work in cooperation with the University Park Street Fair, held on Saturday, August 13th, and she will have access to Sunday's
venue on Saturday night, so sellers who want to work both shows can move
their set-up just down the street.

Please write to Brit at bc36 ((AT)) zips [dot} uakron {dot] edu for details and applications.
