For this event, she has created daylily mugs, a Daylily Girl wall piece, and Daylily Leaf vases. Judy is also volunteering to set up her artwork in our Convention Boutique.

A Convention Boutique takes a village
A hearty thank you goes to the artists and volunteers who helped plan and organize this project and who will help set up and meet and greet conventioneers and the public.
Will we see you there?
We hope you will come say hello, meet artists, and see our grand selection of offerings. Treat yourself (and a friend). We appreciate your support!
