Two in-person art events in August – FINALLY!

I’ll repeat that: High on Hooking will be participating in not just one, but two in-person art events in August! The last time we got to do anything in person was when we taught a punch needle rug hooking class up at the New Mexico Fiber Arts Center (Española, NM) in late February, 2020. Before the stupid Coronacootie struck and absconded with over a year of our lives.

The first event is the UNDERFOOT AND ALL AROUND Rag Rug and Textile Arts Sale in Santa Fe. It’s presented by Art Through the Loom (ATTL), a textile arts guild that I recently joined.

Art Through The Loom promotes weaving and fiber arts in Northern New Mexico. The ATTL members are fiber artists with a strong commitment to weaving and all fiber arts.

Art Through the Loom Guild members are a diverse community of fiber artists who come together from primarily northern New Mexico to access markets and learn from one another as textile professionals.

SALE INFO:
Date:          August 20,21
Time:         10 a.m. – 5 p.m.
Location:    Montezuma Lodge, 431 Paseo de Peralta, Santa Fe, NM

The weekend after Underfoot and All Around, Sturday, August 28, we’re heading back to Mountainair, NM, after a 2-year hiatus. The SUNFLOWER FESTIVAL is one of my favorite events. Sure, I have to drive an hour-and-a-half to get there, but it’s beautiful with all kinds of NM art! And who doesn’t love sunflowers? That’s reminding me; I have to hook a small sunflower mat for the silent auction. Must get on that now that I’m home.

We’ve been silent here on the website for a few weeks as we’ve been back East (Connecticut, Massachusetts, and Rhode Island) to visit family and friends. Because it’s such a L-O-N-G ride in the car, Tynan stayed here in Albuquerque with Ruth. He thanks Ruth for her hospitality and homemade doggie treats AND Mary R. for taking him on walks in the Bosque. Bowyn and Tom and I are recovering from the trip today. We got in last night, and our backs are telling us all about those three 10-hour day drives coming home. I anticipate another round of yoga this evening…

I need to get this post up, but we’ll chat more about what we’ve been doing and making next week. I hope that we’ll see you at one of the August in-person art events. Or both!

And a public service announcement:  Those covid numbers are going up again. If we want to keep our scheduled, in-person events from being cancelled, make sure you and yours get vaccinated.
