Hi everyone,
I apologize if you receive this message more than once. I'm forwarding it to multiple lists. Liz Martin and I are putting together what we’re calling “The Fabric & Costume Rummage Sale Extravaganza” in early May and wondered if you’d be interested in participating. The basics: WHO: Benefit for Butterfield 8 Theater WHAT: The Fabric & Costume Rummage Sale Extravaganza WHERE: Cue Live Productions Theater on Colfax in “old downtown” Concord, Butterfield 8’s playhouse WHEN: Sunday, May 6, 11-5; we have the space from 9-7 HOW MUCH: $20 for a space to sell; $5 for a table; you’re encouraged to bring your own table and rack. The sale will help the sellers move stuff from their closets to someone else’s and be a benefit for Butterfield 8, a wonderful small non-profit theater group under the directorship of John Butterfield and Maureen-Theresa Williams. http://www.b8company.com/ There will be a $5 admission fee to our public and all proceeds from the space/table rental and door will go to Butterfield 8. The money you make at your table is your money and not part of the proceeds. We expect to sell sandwiches, drinks, snacks, etc. at the bar, also for Butterfield 8. (Of course, you can always bring your own food and drink.) We hope to hold a raffle or two and the discussion is on for tickets to the Butterfield 8 opening night to "Lettice and Lovage" by Peter Shaffer, which opens soon after the Extravaganza. There might also be bottles of wine, sewing books and a basket or two of sewing bits and bobs. All profits will go to Butterfield 8 and donations for any of the above will be gladly accepted. This sale won’t just be for costumers, although I expect most of our customers will be interested in some sort of costuming and sewing. We hope that with our diverse advertising, we’ll interest general seamsters as well as costumers so that any fabric, trim, patterns, pieces of not-really costuming, can be sold, not just accurate, period-appropriate items. Please reply to me offlist at lynndownw...@gmail.com and let me know if you're interested in joining us so we can add you to our Rummagee's list. Please use the rummage sale in the subject line so I know you’re interested in signing up with us. For those of you who would rather be Rummagers than Rummagees, we'll send out a notice a couple of weeks before the date. We hope to hear from you soon! Thank you, Lynn Downward _______________________________________________ h-costume mailing list h-costume@mail.indra.com http://mail.indra.com/mailman/listinfo/h-costume
