It’s fortunate that the new park where we’re having the festival is nearby. We often like to walk in it so I can think to myself “What will go where”. It’s not as silly as it sounds, because we now have 52 exhibitors signed up and I have to be aware of such things. Just look at our current map. (Double click to zoom in). The stars indicate participating exhibits in the sticker project for children.
Obviously there’s a lot going on in every corner of the acre park, And a ring of benches in the center with plenty of space to sit and watch Amy create the chalk mural or listen to our great music. The benches are nicely made wrought iron with a little space for memorial plaques that have as yet been unclaimed by the good people of Martinez. There are nine of them that are undedicated. For the first time this week I really looked at them and thought HEY that’s a great empty space that should be filled with information.
So I designed these inserts to fit on temporary cardboard in the nine slots on the day. Some day they will all be dedicated to someone’s grandpa or beloved but on June 30th they going to be all about beaver benefits.
As simple messaging goes,I like them very much. What do you think?
