In July The Flying Carpet
caroused at the 10th International Folk Art market/ Santa Fe.
Spirited music
Amazing Fashionistas
Alien Life Forms
Creatures from Jungian Dreams
Astounding Beauties
untold hours of handiwork
and the first baby to be born to a participating artist
made this Folk Art Market especially mind-blowing.
Special thanks to:
Jo, the Textile Angel
and Veo of the Lovely Smile
for allowing a lowly carpet to volunteer again
at the Ock Pop Tok Booth
also to Zack for photo # 1 and Jill for photo # 9
"Y'all come back and see us now, y'hear?" as they say in the South...
All levity aside,
more than 3,400 volunteers, many from New Mexico,
have given 120,000 hours of their time to the Market over the past nine years. These volunteer hours are valued at $5.12 million.
In the past nine years,
650 artists from 80 countries have participated in the Market
—generating more than $16 million in sales,
90 percent of which has gone home with the artists.
We don't yet know the impact of 2013 Market.
The global connections and friendships are beyond calculation.
Folk Art Market has changed the world.
