#18 Repellam: Rejected Art Faire Episode

We hide in the shadows and feed on our tears…they make us strong. You can’t reject the rejected. Whoa. Sorry, there. Got a little dark.

Not only do Peter and Julie do this podcast together, they also put on a yearly event in Salem, Oregon called Rejected Art Faire. Last year was the first one, actually. But, it was such a smashing success, they’re going to do it every year. In this episode, they sit down with three artists that will be showing at Rejected Art Faire 2018 – Emma Douglas, Crystal Burgoyne, and Shauna Groves at The Dehn Bar in downtown Salem to talk about the event and their art.

Emma, Crystal, and Shauna

Rejected Art Faire 2018 will be Saturday, July 28th at 5pm at The Space Concert Club. It is all ages until 10pm and is $5 entry. All entry fees go to the musicians. Art will be to enjoy and to buy.

The music lineup features Lung from Cincinnati, Ohio. You will hear their song, “Bottom of the Barrel” at the end of the ‘cast. See you at The Faire.

Thanks again to Dehn Bar for graciously allowing us to record in their front room. We love them.
