In Santa Barbara we don't have to wait for Halloween to "dress up"!
Helene Schneider, city councilwoman and a member of the AFS board of directors dressed up and ready for their portrait. Helene is running for Mayor of Santa Barbara!
Here I am with Helene, and Kathy Snow before their photo shoot..
Penny with Syd in the background. Penny went all out with her "Circle" attire including a great button necklace. The theme of the art show this year was Circle and we had to use a piece from Art From Scrap's box in our piece. The art pieces are in a silent auction that benefits the non-profit's work in the community. It's always a fun community event for a great cause.
Afterwards we headed off to Paseo Nuevo for a salad and lemonade...some of the bright Petunias that decorate the balcony above the mall.
I''m not much of a "mall person" but Santa Barbara managed to create a nice tasteful one downtown that doesn't look like a mall. Lots of Spanish tile and flowers and vines and iron work make it a pleasant place to shop and dine.
And this is the "before" shot of ARt From Scrap where the party took place. This is Aaron and my son Justin cleaning up the parking lot on Saturday. The are required to do 60 hours of community volunteer work for high school graduation and happily Justin is working here. I get to search for interesting fabric when I drop him off....as if I needed more fabric, but...well, you know how it is...
