Getting Ready for the Sacramento Arts Festival

For the 18th time we will soon be showing our work at the Sacramento Arts Festival at the Convention Center in midtown. We will have a very good selection of our mixed metal jewels.
Both of us have been enjoying our jewelry work in the studio and trying out some new ideas. Playing and trying new things has helped us enjoy the process of making jewelry for approaching 50 years. We think we'll do it for a few more years yet although we will continue to cut our show schedule.

Before we moved to the Mendocino Coast, we lived in the Nevada City, Grass Valley area for 20 years and starting in about 1975-76 we sold our work at as many as 6 to 10 shows a year in the Sacramento/Davis area. A lot of small shows at first, Sac State, Town & Country Village, K St. Mall, Sunrise Village, Birdcage Walk, other little street shows in Folsom, Roseville, Lincoln, Auburn, Stockton, Nimbus Winery and the list goes on & on for years & years. We only do two shows a year in the area now, the Sacramento Arts Festival & the Davis Art Center's Holiday Fair.
Our business there now is very successful due to the loyalty of the almost 40 years of clients that have bought our work over those years and continue to do so. We are very thankful.
