Arts Business Planning Oktoberfest Arts Alternative

LA MESA – A La Mesa arts business – The Get Centered Clay Studio -- is trying to help other artists who can’t afford the booth prices at Oktoberfest still get a piece of the action. The arts event would be a few blocks away from the main event, but artists are hoping the crowd will pass through its event as well. The Get Centered Clay Studio filed this invitation to local artists:

We've decided to invite fellow artists to participate in our first ever outdoor sale. The event will take place in the parking area between the buildings of the La Mesa Business Center on Center Street.

Here's what we're looking for: La Mesa Artists making pottery, jewelry, diachronic glass, hand woven textiles, precious metal clay creations, slumped glass, basketry, handmade candles. PLEASE, no mass produced items.

If you'd like to participate, please contact Elly Dotseth at (619)667-7077. Bring by samples of your creations, and if we like what we see, you will be invited to participate.

No booth fee will be charged. Our studio will run sales through our store, so we will take a 20% commission on any sales. You will sign a contract with us, and we will mail you your check promptly after the show.

There will be room for about 10 booths. You will need to provide your own canopy, shelves, display etc. There is plenty of parking on weekends. If we all work together, maybe we can get some great art sales happening in La Mesa too!

Park in the lat behind the building, or in the front along Center Street. The event begins at 9am and will run both days until 5pm.

Yes, thank you for sharing, Sandy.  Unfortunately, unemployment has an invisible face to the employed. When my boyfriend was unemployed for 6 months, he was the butt of many a poor joke and snide comment from my family, who are all employed and…

I would love to see this happen.  Especially if we could get it to happen all over the city and not just at Grossmont Center.

Any chance this group can also pitch in and help deliver the Saturday mail in the village?  In an effort to cut some $20 billion in costs, the Postal Service plans to close post offices around the county, and ending Saturday delivery…

LA MESA CENTENNIAL

A Call To Celebrate La Mesa's Centennial WithNoisy "Flash Mob" Car Alarms & Horns, Bells, Whistles!  LA MESA -- Wouldn’t it be unique to celebrate La Mesa's Centennial with a synchronized chorus of celebratory noise. At a pre-determined instant in time, every La Mesa loving resident and their pals would honk their car horns, hit those panic buttons, and/or turn on those obnoxious car alarms. We could even allow the kids, and the kids in all of us adults, to bang pots and pans, hit trash can…See More

Thank you so much, Sandy for that poignant,"...then they came to get me!" saga. I was moved. My wife, Monita, works in Human Resources (thank God for Monita). I am so aware of the plight of my sisters and brothers trudging through this…
