<span style="font-size: 13.0pt;">The Banner Festival was a
beloved Public Art tradition in Yellow Springs for many years. The Banners
graced our downtown streets with color, humor and beauty. Many local artists created unique banners,
year after year. How did it start? How
did it keep going for so many years?
Will there be another Banner Festival?
Come hear the stories, see pictures of banners from across the years and
see up close some of the original banners that still exist.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 13.0pt;">“Conceived by local artist
Maxine Skuba as a way to brighten the downtown area during the gray winter
months, and also as a means for individuals to create and display public
art. Each year a wide range of
towns-people-both artists and non artists, school children and senior citizens
- designed and sewed banners for this event.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>

should be - well loved items in search of new homes. The items have so much

Thanks so much for restoring my spirit."<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

Freeman is a mixed media artist from Columbus, Ohio. She works primarily on wood (often in the

<div class="Textbody" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace; font-size: large;">“My art is inspired by my own deepest
traumas and my greatest, most magical joys. Through painting, I am able to
process and communicate my feelings about those experiences. Each piece is
highly personal to me- like a journal. The work in this show deals with
identity and the growing pains of evolving from the younger, less tired version
of myself, to who and what I am now; a wife, a mother, a transplant from a city
to a very small town… Coupled with the realities of anxiety and depression,
what does that evolution look and feel like? What pieces of myself can I or
should I keep, and what pieces have I now outgrown?” <span style="color: #222222;"><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

Magill is primarily a painter, although she routinely extends her essence
beyond the canvas, into photography and sketches, Madeleine's artwork
represents mystery and unknown oddities. Her canvases are full of medieval
worlds, as well as rare and mysterious animals. Her paintings are intense,
portraying emotions from euphoric to deeply agitated. Raised in the
Mountains of Colorado, she developed a deep love for nature and exploring it.
Each paintings is an adventure to itself, within worlds we only realize through
dreams.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace; font-size: large;">The <a href="http://jafagirls.blogspot.com/" target="_blank"><span style="color: blue;">JafaGirls</span></a>,
have an art partnership and friendship that began in 2005 in Yellow Springs,
Ohio. A love of arts and crafts has been a lifetime passion for artists Corrine
Bayraktaroglu and Nancy Mellon. At a
Yellow Springs Arts Council meeting,
they discovered a mutual joy for creating art mischief together, along
with a desire to spread the word about local arts, artists and community. Part of their creative endeavors took the
form of Yarn Bombing. They created
public, textile, art installations on trees, poles, fences and benches.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="Standard" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace; font-size: large;">On January 21st
2016 after a suspicious mammogram, Corrine Bayraktaroglu was diagnosed with
Breast Cancer. In an effort to help her friends and family help her as
well as put everyone at ease, Corrine asked them to create textile
boobs for a series or yarnbombed trees outside her house. She wanted
something to make her smile. Her friends were delighted to be a given a joyful
way to help and the boobs rolled in. They came through the mail, they were hand
delivered, they were even tossed out of passing cars. They were made by
friends, family and strangers that heard her call.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="Standard" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="Standard" style="text-align: center;">
Ok, time to throw out the rules.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="Standard" style="text-align: center;">
What rules? Art rules? Your rules? Your Mom's rules? Society's rules?<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="Standard" style="text-align: center;">
Can't do it? How about bending the rules, pussyfooting
around the rules.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="Standard" style="text-align: center;">
Maybe it's memories of breaking the rules.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="Standard" style="text-align: center;">
You
can start with figuring out what the rules are for you when you make art.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="Standard" style="text-align: center;">
Then go on to rules you have lived by.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="Standard" style="text-align: center;">
Rules you have broken.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="Standard" style="text-align: center;">
Rules you were told to live by.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="Standard" style="text-align: center;">
Rules our society makes.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="Standard" style="text-align: center;">
Rules we break.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="Standard" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">I went to visit our newest store in town, OATS, located at 241 Xenia Avenue, and what a feast for the eyes. The description</span><span style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"> on OATS explains why: <i>"</i></span><span style="background-color: white; color: #1d2129; font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace; font-size: large; line-height: 18px;"><i>The creator of OATS, Abbey Knight, has brought her talents to numerous different industry outlets including store displays, design shows, and antique malls.

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #1d2129; font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace; font-size: large; line-height: 18px;"> While the shop is housed in a small space it's not suffocating or cluttered. </span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #1d2129; font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace; font-size: large; line-height: 18px;">There are three rooms; the main shop, the middle room, and the back room. Each room has a different feel and theme,which adds to the adventure of exploring deeper into the retail abyss. </span><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="color: #1d2129; font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;"><span style="line-height: 18px;">It's those details like oranges in a bowl and well placed items that makes it so inviting. I kept thinking I wish this was MY living room. It's full of surprises with unique items,vintage, jewellery, candles and small plants. </span></span></span></div>

recognizable images of flowers or landscapes to abstractions. She is also a horticulturist, she designs and

ever changing art. Ann's flower paintings are intuitive and impressionistic and
grounded in her familiarity with flowers and gardens. She likes to start a
painting with contour drawing using charcoal or pen. </span><b style="font-family: "Courier New", Courier, monospace; font-size: x-large;">Her small watercolor

<span style="font-family: "courier new" , "courier" , monospace; font-size: large;">Michele's paintings are from direct observation. Her primary
concern is the interplay of color, shape and light. In the studio, she rarely goes back into her
plein air paintings. She chooses some of them to create collages. “Creating
collages from the paintings allows me to simplify forms, intensify or mute
color, and add texture with cut paper, artist tape, yupo, etc...”<o:p></o:p></span></div>

James learned most everything he knows about working in a kitchen from the kindness of mothers and the encouragement of aunts while living in Tokyo. He’s catered Japanese New Year’s food, hosted elaborate dinner parties, and sampled the full-range of Japanese cooking from the lowest to the highest in the company of executives, vagabonds and friends. He is the cook at Tables of Contents Café, located inside Blue Jacket Books in Xenia, Ohio.

embroider and sew from her mother and grandmother. She still has the
cross-stitch she did at about age 10. In the over three decades since, she has
branched out to quilting by machine and by hand, embroidery of various kinds
including hardanger and sashiko, making curtains and clothes, and toys and
masks for her son. Her current favorite upcycled materials are felted wool
sweaters and t-shirt yarn. Though she has dabbled in other types of crafting
such as paper making, mosaics and candle making, for her it always comes back
to needles, thread and fabric. You can visit Holly at her page <a href="https://www.facebook.com/TinkermansDaughter2/" target="_blank"><span style="color: blue;">Tinkerman's Daughter</span></a>.</span></span></div>

Growing up in a home where her family was constantly shifting, taking on and losing new members, she carries poignant memories of these faces, pulled from worlds of which she was not a part.

Patches of stories both told and untold are painted into each subject, marks of obscured experiences are caught by her thoughtful brush.</div>

She paints what she sees in a contrasting combination of bold and nuanced strokes, layering bright, heavy marks and hard lines interspersed with a soft blending of color. Parts of the surface is often masked, with thinner, transparent layers.</div>
