RTS goes to print (on fabric)!!!

Aaron Harbor and Jackie Im of Et Al Library and editors of Art Cards San Francisco came up with a great idea for their upcoming stint in the media section of artMRKT. Tote bags that advertize the great alternative spaces around the Bay Area that for one reason or another aren’t present at art fairs.

Here is the design for the tote, RTS is in great company!

There was a great turn out for Alison Wilder and Mark Nicola’s talk earlier this week, the scene was captured with some fancy photography.

Mark gives sewing demonstration above and Alison gives a slide show below.
