This past Friday, I had the pleasure of hosting my incredibly talented friend, Jill, for her second Final Friday. On the last Friday of each month, Wichita's Douglas Design District and Downtown areas host Final Friday events to display the works of local artists. It is a great opportunity to get out and check out local art galleries and shops, while supporting local artists.
I met Jill last year through the shop and I fell in love with her gorgeous floral photography. She was expecting her second, so we decided to put off doing a Final Friday show until this summer. June worked out to be the perfect month, especially to show off floral prints. She wanted to have different mediums to show off her work, so she ordered fine art prints, photographic prints and cards. There was a price point for everyone depending on what they were looking for.
Jill brainstormed different ways to display her work and I helped execute the afternoon before the show. Our white backdrop was a perfect spot to hang her colorful fine art prints. We then laid out her cards and photographic prints for guests to easily shop. She also brought in the large canvas prints she had made for her daughters' rooms. They were definitely statement pieces and worked great against the wallpaper. She purchased some beautiful flowers from The Plaid Giraffe to add pops of color and texture to the tables - perfect decor for a floral art show.
The event was packed with her friends, family and supporters, plus some curious locals that like to hit up different shows down Douglas. I was so excited for her and the success of the evening! We have the leftover cards in stock at the store for purchase. Also feel free to reach out if you are interested in getting in touch with Jill to purchase a print.
Thank you Jill for letting us host you! Also, thank you everyone that stopped in to support her. If you are interested in doing your own Final Friday show in our space, please feel free to contact us.
Lots of Love,
Love the photos!! Wow!
