Get Together in Spokane
I am working on having a going away party and social gathering in honor of Janelle Zorko who is moving away from us next month. Communicating with Bill Hagy of Northwest Glass Art Society to allow us to use his studio for this event which we are trying to schedule for the weekend of August 1st or
2nd.
Provided the time is okay for Bill, it would be around 1:00, and everyone would be asked to bring some finger food to snack on and perhaps your own drink. Bill said we could use a torch for anyone wishing to demo and of course, bring whatever you wish for show 'n tell and trade.
I have yet to confirm this date and time with Bill. I think it is wonderful that he will let us use his setup. And Bill is a great glass artist himself and has a lot of eye candy available also. He has been doing mostly furnace work, but maybe we can get him to demo at the torch 
Remember-----this date and time are not definite as yet. I will post as soon as I get confirmation....

I will plan on being there unless my SIL goes into labor. This is exciting to meet other local glass artists (not that I consider myself an artist in this medium yet).

Okey dokey, gang. That weekend will not work for using Bill's studio so my darling husband said he is willing to relinquish the use of his shop for that afternoon and set up a couple of tables for us to use. My studio will not accomodate more than about 3 people at a time, but we can use my torch to demo which is right next door in an air conditioned room. I have plenty of glass, both 104 and borosilicate, and my torch will do both. Our little ranch is located about a block from Hiway 2 and about 25 minutes North of Spokane.
I was hoping for a location relevant to artists in Idaho and southern Washington but this is the best I can do to make a torch available.
It will start at 12:00 and go to 3:00ish on August 1st, Saturday
Bring your show n tell, trades or sales and any new type of glass you might want to experiment with at the torch. Remember your didyums!
A snack of chips & salsa will be provided as well as water and a cake. Feel free to bring anything you want but it isn't necessary to attend. We just want you there!!. Come say "Bon Voyage" to Janelle...
Plenty of parking and the horses are always looking for sqritches.

Thank you, Kay, for organizing this and for the generous offer for the use of Mike's shop and your studio. I will really enjoy seeing everyone before I head off for my new life in Birmingham, AL but I would want to get together with all of you anyway!
I am going to be bringing some giveaways. Gotta clean out that studio before I move and I think I have some good stuff that others can benefit from!
See you all there!
Janelle

I’m sorry I won’t get to see the Northwest Glass Art Society… never been there. Oh well, I know your place is always fun and you have a great supply of glass. So I’ll be there and looking forward to meeting new Glass Artist. I’m glad I get to say goodbye to Janelle but sad to see her go! And gee Kay it’s not like I have never cleaned a stall but whatever has to be done.

Hey, woman. It will be fun. Mike and I will both miss Janelle.
Perhaps a new stall fork would be a better door prize...

Best wishes to you Janelle as you head off to new places - sorry I can't be there to say goodbye!

Thank you Kay and Mike and everyone who came and wished me well! Ah, it's always the way. Right when you leave, you make some fantastic friends. Well, everyone is always welcome in Birmingham!
Many, many thanks also to Peggy and Davy - love my beads. They have a cherished spot in my printer's drawer bead collection!

What a wonderful time. Hubby really enjoyed visiting with your hubby, Kay. You are both great hosts! I really enjoyed seeing everyone and you can tell, I LOVE talking glass. Hey Kay, how did my bead turn out, did it survive?
Janelle, it's been great chatting with you and getting to know you, so sorry we didn't get together more sooner. You will be missed around here. Have a safe trip and I wish you all the best in your new home!
Great to see everyone, lets not be strangers!
tail wags,
Peggy
