Hello

Today's market is for all those who love to sculpt.

The Palm Beach International Sculpture Biennale is to be one of the leading outdoor sculpture competitions in the United States. As we launch this event, it is our vision to create a new and innovative venue for emerging sculptors as well as to feature distinguished artists in this field.

By bringing together emerging and established artists through this showcase, exhibit and series of roundtable discussions, we hope to assist in launching new careers, expanding audiences, and engaging collectors and galleries.

The Sculpture Biennale Competition will result in a 3 day showcase and 60 day exhibit on the 10-acre site of a new and arts complex, The Cultural Campus, South Florida.

Up to 75 artists will be selected by the Curator and Jury Panel to represent the world of outdoor sculpture in this international art event.

THE ARTIST FORUM
Selected artists and jurors will be invited to participate in a public artist forum. The evening topics and discussions are to be determined by the curator.

PREVIEW GALA
On the eve of the showcase there will be an invitation-only preview gala for selected artists, jurors, and guests on the exhibit site.

SHOWCASE
A day showcase will feature selected artists in booths and will be open to prominent gallery owners, collectors, and the general public.

60 DAY INSTALLATION
The selected collection will remain on display for 60-days. Guided tours will be given to students and patrons visiting the site.

SALES
All works will be made available for purchase during the 60-day exhibit. Pricing will be left at the discretion of the artist.

Sculptors worldwide compete for prestigious awards and the opportunity to have their work reviewed by internationally renowned jurors, artists, collectors, galleries, curators, and press.

This has been the most interesting few days so far and I am left to wonder what might happen next.  I went yesterday to do a few simple errands and found out how quickly our dear "Canada Post" is pricing itself right out of the market for shipping.

I purchased $8.00 worth of wool for a friend at our big wool sale this summer and promised to send it to her, It amounted to one large ball and six smaller balls, which as we all know, wool doesn't weight too much...but you would never have guessed that by the shipping cost.

To ship this small box ground mail ended up costing me $42.00 and had I shipped it the 7 day promised arrival time it would have cost me $97.00.  Un-freaking-blah, blah, blah....anyway needless to say, my sweet friend has received her last parcel from me and Canada Post will never ever ship anything for me again.

It would have been cheaper for me to buy over the internet and pay the shipping charges...which is what I will do if I ever decide to ship anything again....can't buy it online, won't happen.

On a happier and less expensive note, I booked all my classes for the 2006 season and managed to get them set up for Mondays and Tuesdays, so I can have the rest of the week for accomplishing my own work.

The tearoom is gearing down for the season and we are now onlly open for private and group bookings.  In other words, if you have a reservation, we are there, but no reservations that day, we don't open.  I love this new arrangement and it will follow into the next year as well.  We will open again in June, by reservation only, and are already taking bookings for the 2006 summer and fall seasons...booked our first two yesterday.

Well, must toddle off as I have the lawn cutter coming today and need to finish up a backlog of paperwork before he arrives.

Until tomorrow, Take care and have a wonderful day,

Trish.
