About me:
The fine folks at DETOUR have come calling for some crafty help for their music festival June 12-14: "Rock City Fest".

JUNE 14TH SATURDAY: ROCK CITY FEST DAY PARTY AT C.A.I.D

We will have two mid-afternoon projects going on!

1. "SHREDDER ROCK BIN" This is a make-your-own-rock-wardrobe idea! Interesting donated items/clothes/materials and tools ready to be remade into your hot new summer look. Shred a t-shirt! Make shirt arms into legwarmers! This is a tongue-in-cheek project and may have some hilarious results!
All supplies will be on hand, but bring more if you have weird clothes to donate!

2. "INSTANT INSTALLATION” Guests and musicians will be encouraged to make artwork on the spot, which will be instantly mounted in CAIDs main floor gallery space! We will need helpers to guide our instant artists, help mount their work and make art cards with info... All the art supplies will be on hand.

* 10 Loop participants will get an ALL ACCESS PASS (good for every night) of the Detour Rock City Fest!!

Please email careygustafson@yahoo.com with: YES! I'm available and really want to help with one or all of this Loop/Detour event!

Who I'd like to meet:
Crafty entrepreneurs from the Metro Detroit area who make and/or sell and market their own handmade goods.

Anyone who is interested in reconstructing Detroit - a symbol of 20th century mass production - as a center of 21st century handcrafted culture.

People who like to get together and craft!
