Every once in a while I do manage to get out of the studio, and bring along a few samples of my art and 'zines to art festivals and conventions around the country. Below is a list of the upcoming events I'm confirmed to appear at, with links to their sites for more information, where available. As well, if you're interested in a more historical perspective, you can click here for information on past shows, with photos and other nifty stuff.
    If you would like to receive an email notice when I will be at an event in your own neck of the woods, just go to the Contact Info and Mail List page. Note in the comment field you'd like to get an email notice of such events, and make sure to at the very least give me your name, email address , state and zip code. We'll use the state and zip code to help us know when we will be nearby, and send you an update note when we know we'll be there. You can then either come and visit in person, or will at least be warned to avoid that area should you wish!

June 6, 7 / 2020	Funky Finds Spring Fling
	Ft. Worth, TX     —    funkyfinds.com/spring.html
	A Handmade Arts and Crafts Event    Okay, so the original dates for the Spring Fling were cancelled back in March with all the shutdowns because of the coronavirus. They have now rescheduled it for early summer, so guess this year it will be the Spring-Summer, or Summer-Spring Fling? In either event, we'll be back at Will Rogers, but since in a hotter time of the year, they'll have us in one of the air-conditioned buildings as well, lucky us! At the time of scheduling, we're all just keeping our fingers crossed things will have opened up for the country by June. If it has, celebrate being able to come out again and join us here!

June 13 / 2020	ArlingCon
	Arlington, TX     —    www.arlingtonlibrary.org/arlingcon
	pop-culture convention     Attended this local show for the first time last year and had a blast, happy to be back again this year. Put on by the good folks at the Arlington Public Library, smack in the middle of the Dallas-Ft. Worth metroplex, it's not just comics and sf but other fun things. YOu've no excuse not to come, too-- it's free to attend, it's in an air-conditioned building in the middle of the Texas summer, there will be all kinds of stuff to see, do, buy, and participate in. Check out the website, watch some of their videos of past events, then come on over and say hi!

June 27 / 2020	Pancakes & Booze Art Show
	Dallas, TX     —    www.pancakesandbooze.com/dallas
	One Day Art Event    Well, we tried to do this back in April, but time, tides and corona-virus shutdowns said "nope" to that. ut, we're gonna try it again this summer! Ready for another evening of music booze, pancakes, and a mix of some of the funkiest and most interesting local Dallas artists? Then come out to the Deep Ellum Art Company for all the art weirdness. There will be close to a hundred artists showing some strange and wonderful work to view and take home. There's the bar, the music, and, of course, the FREE PANCAKES! How can you pass it by? We're moving back to the Deep Ellum Art Co, with both indoor and outdoor exchibit space, and the doors of The DEA Co. will open to the public that evening at 8:00 PM, and it will run to late-night 2:00 AM. Crawling the club-scene in Deep Ellum? Drop on in. This is a 21+ event, with tickets going for $7 in advance, or $10 at the door. (and free pancakes!)

September 18 - 20 / 2020	Vandergriff Art Festival
	Arlington, TX     —    vandergriffartfestival.com
	Juried Arts Festival    Sometimes, if it wasn't for bad luck, we'd have no luck at all! After years of making their home in Art On the Greene next to the Cowboys and Rangers stadiums in Arlington, it looks like construction in that area has kicked us out of the park there for a while... and into another park! We had scheduled back in early May for everyone to come on down to Vandergriff Park for the inaugural/continuation of a fine tradition of Arlington park art fests. But then that had to be cancelled with the state-wide shutdown because of corona virus, so had to re-schedule the re-scheduling!! You'll find a lot of your old favorite artists (like, of course, me!) as well as new creative folks to check out. Free parking, free admission to the event, a variety of arts to ooh and ahh over, plus music, food, wine tasting: how can you go wrong for a spring weekend out?
