Saturday, July 17th, from 12:00-1:00pm, Roberto Gastelumendi of Gastboards Kitchen Art, will be here to demonstrate the production of his amazing cutting boards (pictured here), rolling pins and knife racks. His unique style of inlaying multiple woods in inspiration patterns is beautifully conceived and masterfully accomplished.  Come see how he does it, and pick up some of his very incredible art.  If you value your very unique kitchen items, then this is an event you will not want to miss.

More events to come in August include a special night (4-7pm) with  12 Small Things on Saturday, Aug 7th.  12 Small Things is a collection of fashionable, fair trade products supporting artisans in economically challenged communities around the world.  This great business has been conceived and curated by Bernal Heights resident Laurie Kanes.   On Saturday, August 21st  Mara, of Mara's Maples, will be selling her yummy and insanely delectable nutty concoctions which are guaranteed to creative an immediate need for more!  On Saturday, August 28th, we will feature body products by Captain Blankenship.  We first encountered her delicious soaps at an Forage SF Underground Market, and we were hooked upon lathering up...we think you will be, too.
