The beat goes on ... Jason Heavner is the new Oxford Maker's Market coordinator ...

Jason Heavner has picked up the Oxford Maker's Market flag after I had to put it down because sadly, I'm leaving Oxford, tomorrow!  You may have seen Jason on the cover of the Oxford Living section of The Oxford Eagle during Green Week back in April, 2010.  Jason is an amazing creator of art.  He works in many media, but is popularly known for his folksy crosses.


I just got this email from Jason about the next Maker's Market.  Rock on, Maker's Market - I will miss you the most!

Attention Makers Market Artists and friends,



We have been invited by the Yockna(patwpha) Bottoms Farm to participate in Patawpha Fest 2010. This is going to be a great event with tons of live bands, a farmer's market, crawfish boil, and available camping. There are no seller fees, but you are asked to make a donation to the farm, if possible. If you are interested in selling, please bring your own table, if you have one. They have a few tables we can use, and obviously, we can share space on our tables. Please, come enjoy the food, music, community, and most importantly, supporting a great cause... and bring a tent for camping out! Sounds like a mini Woodstock!

 Requirements to sell: - Set up is anytime before 1:00p.m. for the market, which is kick off time. You can drive your vehicle to the setup location, but they ask that all cars be moved before 1:00p.m.. We will sell until whenever, All spaces for sellers are first come first serve. When you arrive to claim your spot, please have all of your merchandise with you and begin setting up immediately. If you abandon your spot during setup, the Maker’s Market committee reserves the right to move any tables/chairs/items left only to reserve a spot. - Bring your own table, chairs, and table cloth, and if you want shade, you will need a canopy. Most artists bring 6 ft tables that collapse and are easy to carry. Card tables also work well. - Please bring your own screens, easels or other setup for displaying wall art. If the seller is under the age of 18, he/she must be accompanied by an adult. - Sellers must bring their own cash to make change for sales. Mississippi sales tax .07% must be submitted to David Molina before the end of market.
