Student Summer Pettit makes a sale on their Spongebob related paintings
On December 5th, faculty member Anthony Mead – Director of the Morlan Gallery and Adjunct Instructor of Art – once again put together the Annual Makers Market here at Transy. Just in time for holiday shopping, students, alumni, and Transy associates of many crafts spend months putting together a stock of products and goods to sell at the event. Held in the Pio Rooms decorated with Christmas trees and string lights and holiday music playing through the speakers, anyone is welcome to wander into the space and take a look at the plethora of booths. You’ll find stickers, jewelry, clothes, cookies, live drawings, made-on-the-spot keychains, and just about anything these ambitious artists can imagine and create! The Makers Market is a great time to showcase the talent here at Transy and, as always, it will leave you with a bag of goodies and thoroughly impressed. Keep an eye out next December for the Annual Makers Market.
