Fifty years of fun
This Saturday is the 50th annual UPS Flea Market, hosted by the Puget Sound Women’s League. The event raises money for student scholarships (that’s what the ticket price supports, in case you’re wondering), and features everything from one-of-a-kind art to handmade crafts to rummage-sale-style bargains. There will also be gently-used books for sale, as well as an array of homemade baked goods (in honor of the first Flea Market’s Parisian theme, they’re bringing back French tarts this year!).
I had the honor of designing/illustrating/lettering their poster, logo, social media campaign and other elements this year—it was one of the most fun projects I’ve had in some time (who doesn’t love drawing upside-down garden gnomes?). I’ll also have my usual booth there on Saturday: you’ll find me, Jessica Spring and Maria Jost (plus lots of Dead Feminists goodies) all in one big double booth, #5/6 on the main floor.
