STUDIO PARTY!!

We had a blast at the Studio Party! We're so glad so many friends and supporters came out to help us party down and celebrate our two newest designs with a glass of boozy beverage and a whole lotta fun.

We also love having a joint party with our neighbor, Jonathon of Napkin Art Studios. Jonathan came to our grand opening studio party, and loved the space so much that he moved his poster printing and design shop into the studio space next door. So this party was technically his first grand opening party.

There was so much mingling and fun being had, that we forgot to take many pics  (this tends to be a reoccurring theme with us), but here's a few images we snapped of the night. We were also very fortunate to have Arianna from Lavander + Pink stop by with her friends and snap a couple pics for a recap on her blog. Arianna also did a beautiful recap of the Dallas Flea, check it out.

 The MerJack photo cut out was ready to greet everyone at the door.

Our clipboard print wall. The image is horribly lit, but we spray painted sections of the clipboards with gold, yellow and teal to make some interesting frames for the prints.

 The Dowdy Studio Wagon!! And in the corner, our Mermaid cut out.

Looking good Mer-People!!

Our awesome friends Preston and Bryan kept the local Rahr & Sons beer flowing, and partied right along with everyone. Thanks barkeeps!

  
 And party times began!

Weekend recap in pix

Saturday morning started out at the White Rock Local Market. Since we pulled double events on Saturday, we went full blown pop-up tent for the market. Without the Wagon we took up less space, so we invited Dad Dowdy to bring out some of his furniture pieces to show off. Dad Dowdy has been getting ready for the Dallas Flea this upcoming weekend, so we thought this market would be a great chance for him to show off a few new pieces.

Just a shot of our display that Dylan built. The Dowdy Studio sign was made the night before, very last minute, but we think it turned out pretty cool. We may have to use it again.


Immediately after the White Rock Market, the Untapped Festival in West Dallas kicked off. The whole fest was jam-packed with great bands, lots of beer, awesome food trucks and so much fun. We heard the fest was sold out even before doors opened, so if you're thinking of going to this next time, buy them tickets whenever they go up for sale. Seriously, you don't want to miss it.

 From the steps of the Wagon, we got to watch the Antlers, the Givers and Akron/Family do their thing. No complaints at all.

 Night time pic. My phone camera is totally weak mode. Sorry for the blursville pic.

 On Monday we found Pamela in in Dallas Observer's People of Untapped slideshow. Hi Pamela!

That's all the pics we have until this weekend. So come see us at the Dallas Flea at South Side on Lamar on Saturday. We'll have the Wagon out front, and we can't wait to see you!



Cheers,
-Dylan + Pamela

Spune and The Common Table are teaming up to bring you the inaugural Untapped event, Untapped, a day long “block party” event featuring live music from national acts, along with regional favorites and an epic craft beer line-up. During the daylong event, craft beer and music lovers will unite for a day of both live performances and over 100 beers from 30+ breweries. VIP passes will be sold for early entry to the beer event and access to rare and limited tappings. Music starts at 2pm and will continue into the evening.

TRINITY GROVES is an exciting project and the perfect fit for this concept. Parking will also be a breeze and that is a massive positive. Plus, pristine views of downtown Dallas and the Margaret Hunt Hill Bridge provide an amazing backdrop for drinking great brews and listening to excellent tunes.
