[A.K.A. Where my (Molly Block) art work & creative-reuse work can be found in person in the coming months, in addition to being found online on Etsy in the Molly Block Finds shop here, & on Facebook here.]
MARKETS:
Sat., March 21, and maybe Sat., April 11 — Rice Village Flea in Houston — I had such a great time in February as a first-time vendor at the Rice Village Flea that I’m signing up for future RVF markets, where I’ll be selling prints of my photos and pieces of my upcycled vintage-film jewelry. The mix of local artisans/makers who participate in the RVF varies a bit from month to month, so it’ll be fun to see who’s here in March and beyond!

Sunday, March 29 — The Austin Flea, at the HighBall, 1120 S. Lamar, in Austin — I’m psyched about being a first-time vendor at the Austin Flea, a curated, indoor-and-outdoor market that’s been in existence since 2009. My table will be inside (yeah!). All sorts of good stuff, mainly local, handmade, and/or vintage things, can be found here. Unframed and framed prints, including some canvas wraps, like this one, of my vintage neon sign photos, including the one above that is now gone from Austin, will be available.

More to come!
P.S. My house is *still* outfitted with a sophisticated security system that includes security cameras and other motion-detection gear and alarms, plus a strong man who’s very adept at using guns, in addition to a large, loud, easily angered dog, plus very watchful neighbors who keep an eye on everything happening nearby. So burglars: Stay away!
