Painted Pony Arts Festival - Jamul Arts and Music Council

(I'm showing at this event. I think this is the most wonderful story. Art rises in the ashes of fire. What could be more affirming? I believe there is room for more artists.)



Painted Pony Arts Festival Sponsored by the Jamul Arts and Music Council
A non-profit tax organization 501(c)(3)
P.O. Box 98 Jamul, CA 91935
Promoting and expanding arts education and opportunities in the arts for both school and community.

Dear Artist:
The Jamul Arts and Music Council, also known as JAM, would like to invite you to participate in the Second Annual Painted Pony Arts Festival. Since JAM received a San Diego County Enhancement Grant, there will be no booth fees! Jamul is only 26 minutes from downtown San Diego, and is easily accessible from all of San Diego County and the East County communities. After our community was devastated by the Harris Fire, JAM decided to rise from the ashes and promote Jamul as a developing cultural center for the arts beginning with this Festival.
The Festival will be on Saturday, November 7th from 10:00 a.m. until 4:00 p.m. The location will be outside on the grounds of Jamul Intermediate School, rain or shine. Artistically painted live horses, genuine equine, will be on display as performance art. Plus, for extra ‘horse power’ beautifully airbrushed motorcycles will be featured. There will be booths of artists, children’s activities, food booths, and live musical performances throughout the day. An east county high school art venue is new this year. The event will be highly publicized with flyers to all of the local schools, churches, day care facilities, and businesses in the community. Last year’s festival was City Beat’s pick of the week. Articles and ads will be in the local newspaper and the Union Tribune. Information will be given to various companies and organizations on the web. A master flyer will be mailed to each artisan for sharing at events they attend. A sign will be posted beside Highway 94 which may be read by over 10,000 East County residents and visitors.
We do not rent or provide tables, chairs or canopies. Booth set up begins at 7:00 a.m. You will be able to drive close to the display area to unload but we suggest bringing a dolly. It is your responsibility to pay all California sales tax. There are no pets or smoking allowed on the grounds.
This event is run entirely by volunteers from the Jamul Arts and Music Council. Please direct additional questions to JamulJam@yahoo.com.

Facebook, Friends, Family, Business Pages, Groups

Lots of blah, blah, wee going on about FaceBook and 25 friends, business pages no longer the be all end all, and having more meaningful interactions with family, friends and in groups. Some folks are in an uproar (some folks are always in an uproar, or so it seems). "Our relationship is in trouble." Here it comes. If you are family or a close friend and the only way you maintain contact with me is through FB, our relationship is in trouble. We are both aware of this. "My feed algorithm feels like FB tracks the posts I respond to" I’ve never counted the number of people I see posts from. My feed algorithm feels like FB tracks the posts I respond to and shows me posts with similar subject matter from a number of different folks. Some whose posts I comment on, on a regular basis, others I don’t have any idea who they are, but I usually find their posts interesting and I’m glad to read them. "FB is a public platform" I have always sel...

The Dye Garden

Image
The idea of the dye garden is very simple. Request dye plant seeds from me, or buy your own and begin your garden. Doesn't matter whether you have an acre, a small backyard, a window sill or a balcony. See below for links on how to get your seeds started. I've ordered indigo seeds from Botanical Colors (Madam Magyar), Blue Light Junction (grown in Baltimore, MD) and Ossabaw Island, GA (Mayan Blue). Soon indigo seeds should be arriving from my friend Kiri in Brazil.   In addition to the indigo seeds, I also have weld, woad, coreopsis, black hopi sunflower and madder seeds.  This seed variety will produce a full spectrum of colors. Primary colors when used individually in a dyebath, and a host of secondary and tertiary colors when combined. If you live in the Stockton area, email me (y.sabur@gmail.com)  and we can arrange a time and place for a safe pickup.
