This weekend I spent my market time at the South Coast, Broulee/Moruya. Moruya was a taaad disappointing on the day- I contacted the markets really late, so the location I had was on the outskirts, and it wasn't ideal for sales. However! I made LOTS of friends with local families, gave out my contact details and stickers to the kids, and in general had a lovely day on the water front. Even now I've had contact with my new friends, and I'd love to get closer links with my second home.
Back in Broulee the Art On The Path event was held on Sunday morning, run by my good friend Marie of the Broulee Community Council. The event is an opportunity for local artists to show their work to the community, and it raised money for community projects like extensions on the Broulee path ways, donations for the local schools and more. I had a little stall in the middle of it all, and felt completely accepted and involved in the community where my parents are slowly retiring to. The Broulee community is amazingly talented, and had a really great day with my mum, just hanging out. Happily, I did sell a few of my range, but even more happily I made some contacts I'd hope will last for a lifetime.
All in all, this weekend was a pleasure! I'm spending a couple of months with my family in Broulee, so I plan to be back at the Art On The Path a week into the new year.
Love Danielle Kathleen
