Lemon Jellow Productions Holiday Event Starts Tomorrow!

"Need a ride home" by Maya Hum up for sale

This year I started working with a fantastic arts collective called Lemon Jellow Productions.  Our next event is "Deck the halls with ART from Lemon Jellow." Back to back parties from 8pm ’til midnight on Friday (tomorrow!), December 9 & Saturday, December 10. Come for caffeine and cookies on Sunday from noon to 5 pm. Location: 25 Charlevoix St. Ottawa

This pARTy is a two for one deal. You get to knock off a few names from your shopping list plus you get to share some Xmas cheer with a bunch of folks. A DJ will be spinning some toe tapping tunes and our mystery re-gifting table will raise some dough for Pink Triangle YOuth.

Lemonjellow pARTies are wicked networking gigs too so who knows what opportunities may slip if you give it a miss.  Julie’s rounded up a bevy of artists who are keen on beautifying your walls and those of your loved ones this holiday season.
Delightful elves will greet you at the door with a holiday smile and if you’re lucky you’ll find yourself under the mistletoe.
So bring your kissing lips and your dancing legs and your strong arms for carrying some art home.
