Art Affair on the Fence
Hang your artwork along 8 feet of iron fence on High Street & Bradford Street. Any artwork that can be displayed on the fence is eligible. No tables. No bins. Just your art on the fence and a folding chair for the artist. Sculptors may exhibit on the lawn inside the fence, but must bring their own display pedestals.
Open to all artists. All artists must have a photocopy of their 2008 RI tax number. If you need a tax number you will be able to get one on the day, the cost will be $10.00, which will be added to the entry fee. Entry Fee: $35.00 for the space to exhibit. No commission on sales. No jury.
Come and see the fence to determine what wires or hooks you need to hang your work. Space is limited and will be allocated on a first-come, first served basis. So get your application in early.
Dead line for applying is Monday June 30th.
Accepted artists will be assigned a number corresponding to the section of the fence that will be theirs to occupy:
Hanging begins at 8:30 a.m. on the morning of the show on August 23rd. All artwork must be displayed and ready for viewing by 9:30 a.m

Church Carnival
Our Annual Children’s Carnival will be on Saturday, May 3rd, 2008 from 11:00am-3:00pm, rain or shine. There will be a moon bounce, games, prizes, food, white elephant table, raffles, and Dave Marchetti’s fabulous animal show at noon.
In order to make this event a success we need MANY helpers. We need help setting up, grilling, running the games and other tables, and cleaning up. Please sign up on the sheet in the DeWolf Room or you may talk to Jamie Caromile or any other member of the CE Committee for more information.
We are also looking for donations of both used and new items to help make the Carnival a success. We need gently used toys, games, books, and sports equipment for our white elephant table. We are also asking for new items that we may use to make gift baskets for our raffle. We’d like to be able to make up the following theme baskets:
* girls basket
* boys basket
* beach toy basket
* outdoor toys basket
* movie night basket
* Italian night basket
* candy basket
* or you may make up one of your own creations to donate
Please bring your items to the church school wing by Sunday, April 27th.
Thank-you for your help. We hope to see you there!
