> JOPLIN HOLIDAY ART SALES OPPORTUNITY
A call to all Spiva artists and artisans!
Seeking one-of-a-kind fine art and finely crafted items for
Spiva’s 2006 Holiday Bazaar!
Spiva’s new Regional Focus Gallery is now open on the first floor.
However, the new gift shop is not quite ready for occupancy.
Because Spiva’s public shouldn’t have to wait, and the staff has too much fun selling your work to delighted customers, merchandising committee volunteers are creating a
Holiday Bazaar!
Located on the 2nd floor in the former Regional Gallery, the space is almost
3 times the size of the current 2nd floor gift shop!
The Holiday Bazaar!
will open Saturday, November 25, 2006, and remain open during gallery hours
(10 to 5, Tues–Sat; and 1 to 5 on Sundays)
through Friday, January 12, 2007.
Your splendid, fun, useful, eclectic, high quality work will make the Bazaar
the source for unique and exceptional gifts this holiday seasoN!
Here’s how to participate…
Review & complete the “Holiday Bazaar Agreement”
Label your work & complete the Holiday Bazaar “Item List”
Deliver your work (and paperwork) to Spiva during gallery hours November 14–19, 2006.

> TRAIL OF TEARS
A nice art passage from a book I'm reading now, WALKING THE TRAIL: ONE MAN'S JOURNEY ALONG THE CHEROKEE TRAIL OF TEARS, by: Jerry Ellis, Delta Books, 1991, page 127:
"... Every wall is bursting with paintings so rich in color and composition that they seem inspired. One shows two Indians on horses as they overlook a great valley. Another offers a family walking among bears and lions and lambs. A boy plays in the grass with a snake while a nearby garden prospers with vegetables and fruit trees. My favorite captures another family awed by a shower of shooting stars over a desert of camels."
