Video. A First. Open House 48 Hour Clearance Sale

by Jon Katz

We are having great fun with our new You Tube Sales experiment, and it is successful. Today, we had the bright idea of having a sale to sell the dozen or so gifts and artwork that remain from the Open House, where Maria sells her work and other artists work from her studio.

This year, we decided to broaden the show, and open it up to our blog readers, most of whom live too far away to come to the Open Houses, but who want to follow them. Selling art is just one of the things that happen at the Open House, we have readings, talks, shearing and equine farrier work, spinning, sheep herding with Red and Fate, farmer talks, Ed Gulley folk art,  and animal visitations.

Our videos have altered the narrative a bit, we are opening up the Open House to all of the people who share our lives with us.

Maria’s art curating has become increasingly confident and successful.The Open House is a celebration of her art and the art of other people. It is a festival of encouragement.

So we are happy to share this process with you. Our first ever Open House Clearance Sales Video. This is not the Home Shopping Channel. Red and Fate have cameo roles. Come and see.

She is selling the last tote-bag, the last vintage hanky scarf, some Tallow Balm and a few potholders. Everything else is gone. The sale will last a couple of days. If you want to buy any of it or have any questions, you can e-mail Maria at [email protected]. Have fun, we are. And good luck.
