From our buddy Carye:

Hello friends!

Just a little note to let you know about to Holiday sales I’m in the next two weekends and to announce my Red Bat Press’s hand printed 2011 Calendar Cards. Online at http://redbatpress.com/shop_calendarcards.htm . This year for me has been all about the Oregon Coast — I went on 7 trips so far, half by bus & bike. So this year’s designs are based on my coastal experiences! I started making the Calendar Cards in 2004, so this is my 7th year! I find they are a fun unique gift that is more than a card, but a useful piece of art to enjoy the whole year.

If you are able to make it to sales, there are show specials. Art Postcards as usual are 4 for $10. I’ll have my Hidden Portland book for $18. Calendars are $8 each or 2 for $15, 4 for $28 or if you want 6 or more, they are $6 a piece. I also love Trades! You can also schedule an appointment to come by my studio/Bat Cave just North of Mississippi. The Calendars are also at two shops downtown: Reading Frenzy & The Crafty Wonderland Pop Up Shop. Tonight RF has an opening party with Cider & Cookies for the 15th Annual Cheap Art Bazaar!

Also for those on facebook, there are a bunch of small holiday artisan sales going one all weekend that are listed on my Hidden Portland for the Curious page! Apologies for not being able to type those out.. back to the grind.. we’ve got a lot of making & printing to do! Also want to give a shout out to my boyfriend Matthew who has been really a huge help this season — he’s installed proper lights in my printshop, and made me a drying box (since in the summer, I use the sun). It’s those little handy things that have made my quirky little print shop where all Red Bat Press comes out of that much nicer.

Here are details of shows I’m in below.

Cheers!
Carye Bye
