Market @ our studio this weekend

Postby Masato » Sat Dec 05, 2020 4:42 pm

So in the midst of Lockdown, Mrs Masato is hosting a HANDMADE CHRISTMAS ARTISTS MARKET at her place.

She has 17 badass artists. She is taking zero cut of anything, free for her artist she's just trying pump some attention to the artists who have been fucked by lockdowns and Amazon. (markets they usually sell at have all been cancelled, and Amazon has stolen most online shopping because they can make it cheaper)

Helped set up last night that place was looking great.

She did a pretty god job advertising, but everyone is curious to see how many people are willing to come out during red zone bullshit or how many will stay home. All restrictions are being followed this ain't no Etobicoke BBQ situ lol but in other ways it kinda is.

I'll post more pics as the weekend goes. Wish her well!

I framed one of my lifedrawings and put it in :D
Tell me honestly is that weird? I never know how other people perceive the idea. Wife puts it up for me and even priced it higher than I asked but she has curated this whole event and I wonder if it doesn't belong. lame I worry about this shit lol

There is this dude who makes amazing fine crafted stuff out of WOOD. A friend of his was with him setting up, and he told her that one of these pens was actually made out of her son's old baby crib. Apparently when her kids outgrew the crib, she gave it to the wood guy, and then when his kids outgrew it, he used the wood to make shit. She almost cried, lol and had to buy the pen.

I will share more pictures as the weekend goes on. If you are in the Halton area you can meet Mrs. Masato :D she is there all weekend by herself running it, no artists so she can maintain max 9 people in the room or whatever science says won't kill us all lol

- Those pens look amazing.
- I rent this space for advertising

Don't be selfish, preserve this world for the next generations.

How are you (and her) enforcing or not enforcing the mask policy?

I feel like it's such weird social conditioning but the snitches are out there.

(I did my floating shelves the same way)

Everyone here basically wears a mask inside stores etc by default. No enforcing necessary people just did it without asking.

My wife thinks its BS so would never get uptight about it, but I don't think there was a single issue.

That's kind of good and bad at the same time lol
