I am meeting with the owner of Minnie's next week to discuss a possible Tiki Art Show and Sale out on the large patio for this spring/summer. If there are artists interested, post here or PM or e-mail. I know it could be a logistical problem since Modesto is far from the center of the Tiki Universe (LoCal?) but I feel a need to fulfill a hunger for tiki among the local masses. Some of you I will talk to at the S.F. Crawl. Chongolio, this will be a great outlet for you too. I think we will have the carvings covered, it's the paintings and other media we will need to fill. Let's see if there's an interest. All you hobbyist maybe it's time for you to come out of the closet and display your stuff. Do not post your work here. This is only in the infant stages. Poly Pop I've seen your work.....think about it. Wao Nahele Kalepa Kumula'au Hale [ Edited by: Jungle Trader on 2004-05-21 18:12 ] |

I think that's a neat idea. There are plenty of good artists on this site. I wish you the best of luck!! Would you be interested in tattoo flash based on traditional Polynesian and Micronesian design?? I think it goes quite well with the theme. [ Edited by: Lars on 2004-03-26 13:33 ] |

I'm sorry, that's what I was refering to, paintings on canvas, not actual flash sheets. Let me get some things together, and I'll send you some pics. |

The date for the show is Sat. May 22 from 6 to 9pm. For you Bay Area TCer's you can do your thrifting, get a bite to eat at Minnie's and check out the show and sale all in one day/night. Right now I've confirmed 3 artists but I'm working on a surprise guest. Also Lars might be displaying his work (although he won't be attending). Come out and check it out and keep an open mind. I'll post more later. |

Hey! Sounds very cool. May be able to help fill wall space with bamboo-framed prints of my tiki and tiki-inspired art. I probably can't send originals 'cause they're booked into a show here for May-June, but might be able to work something out... Going to post some art on TC soon, but in the meantime, you can view it on my website at http://www.TheArtDeck.com. |

Hey Travelin' Tiki, thanks for the offer. How are you going to get them down here without paying for the high cost of shipping? |

If I ship soon enough, the cost should be under $40 (the frames are extremely light-weight) a price I'm willing to pay to have my art displayed at such a cool event. Hopefully everything will sell & I'll make the money back anyway. If it doesn't,guess I'll just have to figure something out with the return shipping but I'll cross that bridge when I come to it. |

Great! I will ship them by the 3rd. That will give 'em lots of time to get down there. How many do you want? I have 8 altogether (just to be clear, I'm sending prints, not paintings.) The final framed size is about 17" x 21" so let me know what there's room for. I'll make up a nameplate with pricing for each one ($$ what kind of cut are you taking?) Also, if its okay I'll send down some business cards to leave out @ the show. :) |

I figured everything out. The best time to drown out the Tiki Oasis posts is the Sunday morning after. They will all have hangovers and it will be very quiet, incredibly quiet save for our posts. Then we post like hell about our events up here and take over....till they get over their hangovers and start posting all the drunken heathen pics. HAHAHAHA!!! |

this suggestion is a little late--you should add "Modesto May 22" to the topic line to make it stand out--I kept assuming this was another So-Cal event that I couldn't make. |

Cynful, we might be able to give you a ride, but don't know for sure yet if we can go. We have a visitor from out of town starting this weekend, so I just have to find out what our schedule is before I know for sure if we can go tomorrow. I'll get ahold of you privately if so. -Randy |

it was quite the pleasure to be a part of the activites at minnie's last night. we enjoyed looking at the arts and crafts of chongolio, jungle trader, lars, traveling tiki, bosko, and benzart. it was also a great time hanging out with the group, and seeing mr. smiley, tikivixen, and newbie tiki woo. we are eagerly awaiting the pictures of the conch shell with the golem! quite the find mr smiley! it made the torch lighting all the more mysterious. (we hope you are feeling better) here are some pics:
:tiki: good times :) |

Yeah, that was a lot of fun. It was good to hang out with all y'all again and have quite a few laffs. A big thanks to Jungle Trader for putting this show together and another to the owners and staff at Minnies. I am looking forward to the next show.
