Get out!

 If you know Robert Hillestad and/or the Robert Hillestad Textiles Gallery at UNL, you will clear your schedule to attend the biennial fundraiser sale this Saturday, August 18, 9-4 at 1339 N. 37 Street in Lincoln. For more info: 402-466-0951. Jay Rich says, "The entire east campus area has garage sales concurrent." Who can resist that? Fall's coming, kids are in school--get a project going!

 Justine Petsch (justinej2@gmail.com) has an invitation of a different sort: “I'm working on a signature fundraiser for FoodBank for the Heartland -- an Empty Bowls Event on September 20th. I need help painting/glazing 200 bowls. Work will be done at Hot Shops (many thanks to Tim Barry!) -- all supplies furnished.” Justine is hoping for plenty of volunteers on Wednesday nights in August, the 15^th, 22^nd, and 29^th from 6:00 to 8:30.
