Bring a small portable table or bolster stand to work on. One or two people per shift would be lovely. Share the time with another lacemaker or invite a friend! Enter at the east door by the parking lot, go down the stairs to the basement and sign in. Get your ID badge and a complimentary drink & meal tickets. You will then head to the second floor: The venue is air-conditioned! You may want to bring a sweater…
Bring some display items for the time you are on duty. A long table is set up for any ‘show and tell’. This is a fun event, and quite informal. To sign up, email: froesehj@mts.net
