Gently used art supplies can be free or have a garage sale price clearly marked on each one.  Each participant must provide an inventory for the use of the sales table and should use a code (KBili – 1, KBili – 2, etc.) so that items are easily tracked for payment to the participating artist at the conclusion of the event.   Contact Kay Bilisoly kzart@bellsouth.net ,<https://www.blogger.com/kzart@bellsouth.net> if you would like come at 1:00 and help set up or can stay for a short clean-up.   It would be helpful to have a head count of participants ahead of time; please contact Kay Bilisoly at the above email address to help us plan ahead.  Plan to have some boxes in which you can carry your loot home.   No charges; cash or check only.
