Saturday and Sunday, July 11th and 12th we had the pleasure of serving free coffee, chocolate, and Frozen X-plosions and teaching coffee 101 to many people at the 2009 Art by the Bay. Art by the Bay is an art show here on Camano Island. It’s always a great time to get to enjoy the local, pacific northwest talent.
We had a record day of visitors on Saturday and, if it wasn’t for the pouring rain for a few hours, we would have had a record day on Sunday as well! For those of you that are unaware of Art by the Bay or the artist community on Camano Island, here is a small excerpt from the Art by the Bay website…
“Art by the Bay includes over 100 juried artists and craftspeople from around the Northwest, plants and garden art, gourmet food, and live music throughout the weekend featuring an amazingly eclectic array of local performers. Free admission, free parking, free music!”
Camano Island Coffee Roasters was there as well as Pirates Chocolates (our awesome Camano chocolatier) and our sister company, Frozen X-plosion. Check out these pictures that Matt took. Art by the Bay regularly brings 4000+ people together for 2 days at Utsalady Elementary School.
We encourage you to come out next year when they move it to the Stanwood/Camano Community Fairgrounds. We’ll see ya then!
