Submit your design choice on the BARNS & BREWS webpage as soon as possible to reserve your spot. Colors are selected the day of the class. We periodically post new designs on our FB page. These can also be painted in the class even if they aren’t in the catalog yet. \n Each design will have a difficulty designation:\n (E) = Easy (I) = Intermediate (D) = Difficult \n Intermediate = Includes curved lines to cut and/or some color-next-to-color freehand painting.\n Difficult = Includes lots of curved lines to cut and/or lots of color-next-to-color freehand painting. \n *COLOR SELECTION: When picking your colors\, keep in mind that due to the drying time of the enamel paint and the process we use to paint the signs\, it is best not to paint color next to color. Color-next-to-color painting requires a steady hand and freehand painting. The colors may run and bleed into each other. Therefore\, it is best to keep white space between each color. There are a few designs in our catalog with some color-next-to-color painting which takes a steady hand\, but the majority of them are easy enough for any novice.  \n PRIVATE PARTIES: Private parties can be scheduled with a minimum of 10 people. The parties can be held at the Mount Vernon Community Center for a $30 room rental. If you want a private party at the Community Center\, you pay the $30. You can bring snacks and drinks (alcoholic or non). If you do not have 10 or do not want to pay the $30 room rental for a private class\, we can open up the class to the public to fill the empty spots up to 16 people and we will pay the $30 Community Center charge.  \n CUSTOMIZATIONS: Some customizations hand painted and/or designed by Hugh Hoffman can be made to the barn quilts with pre-approval. Minimal customizations such as the addition of a letter on Design # 10 or #13 is an additional $10 charge. Custom designs not included in our catalog can be done if approved by Hugh for an additional $20 as long as they do not have a lot of color-next-to-color painting and if they can be designed to work with the BARNS & BREWS method. Submit any customizations with your design choice when reserving your spot. Approval will be sent in your return confirmed email. \n CONTACT: If you have questions\, please contact us via our BARNS & BREWS Facebook page or webpage http://www.barnsandbrews.com/contact.html.

SUMMARY:Freebo\, Maxwell & Howe in Mount Vernon\, Iowa - Presented by Lilfest
DESCRIPTION:PLEASE SHAREThe astonishingly talented Freebo (Bonnie Raitt’s bass player and sideman/recording artist for many LA greats like like John Mayall; Dr. John; Crosby\, Stills & Nash; Maria Muldaur; and Ringo Starr) has assembled a Super-Tour Trio\, Freebo\, Maxwell & Howe. As a recording producer\, he brought two great talents into his studio\, Kristen Maxwell and Alice Howe. The blends\, humor\, and comraderie set fire\, and off they went on tour together! A road experienced singer-songwriter in his own right for many years now\, Freebo recognized something really special. \nA 2016 Kerrville New Folk Finalist and 2017 Most Wanted Artist at Falcon Ridge Folk Festival\, Kirsten Maxwell’s rise in the music scene has been one to watch\, Based out of Long Island\, NY\, this singer/songwriter has been making a name for herself in the Northeast and beyond. Described as “making love to the audience”\, Kirsten’s stage presence is undeniably endearing and she has since opened for Melissa Etheridge\, Bill Staines\, Michael Johnson\, Slaid Cleaves\, and Vance Gilbert. \nTimeless and original\, Boston singer-songwriter Alice Howe joins a soulful\, impeccably tuned voice with crafted poetry. A lifelong songwriter\, Alice’s musical sensibility lies in ’60s folk and ’70s Southern California songwriters\, with comparisons drawn to the pure\, distilled sounds of Joan Baez and Joni Mitchell. As a performer\, Alice is sure-footed and captivating\, familiar to her audience from the very first song. A born New Englander and Smith graduate\, her career launched in Seattle and now she hails from Boston again. Her original song “Homeland Blues\,” debuted at #1 on the April Folk DJ chart and she is a 2017 Falcon Ridge Folk Festival Emerging Artist. \nTickets: $5 for students with student ID\, $15 for general admission\, $50 for patron reserved seats. Can be purchased in-person or online. \nDON’T FORGET: BRING YOUR OWN BEVERAGES AND SNACK SUPPER. Buy the Sippy Cup and you can bring the beverage in the Theatre. Popcorn provided. \nhttps://www.alicehowe.com\nhttp://www.kirstenmaxwell.com\nhttp://www.freebomusic.com\nhttps://www.LilFest.org \nPLEASE SHARE

Be sure to confirm and pay for any customizations at the beginning of the class. \n WHAT TO BRING: All you need to bring is your creativity and a beverage of your choice (alcoholic or non). Be sure to wear painting clothes or smocks. This paint does not wash out! \n DESIGN SELECTION: The current catalog is located on the BARNS & BREWS Facebook page and on the BARNS & BREWS webpage http://www.barnsandbrews.com/catalog.html. On the Facebook page\, it should be on the main feed or in the PHOTOS section under the Album entitled CATALOG. Each design has a number. The catalog shows different variations of a single design. We only need to know the number of the design you like. We can make the variations the day of the class. Submit your design choice on the BARNS & BREWS webpage as soon as possible to reserve your spot. Colors are selected the day of the class. We periodically post new designs on our FB page. These can also be painted in the class even if they aren’t in the catalog yet. \n Each design will have a difficulty designation:\n (E) = Easy (I) = Intermediate (D) = Difficult \n Intermediate = Includes curved lines to cut and/or some color-next-to-color freehand painting.\n Difficult = Includes lots of curved lines to cut and/or lots of color-next-to-color freehand painting. \n *COLOR SELECTION: When picking your colors\, keep in mind that due to the drying time of the enamel paint and the process we use to paint the signs\, it is best not to paint color next to color. Color-next-to-color painting requires a steady hand and freehand painting. The colors may run and bleed into each other. Therefore\, it is best to keep white space between each color. There are a few designs in our catalog with some color-next-to-color painting which takes a steady hand\, but the majority of them are easy enough for any novice.  \n PRIVATE PARTIES: Private parties can be scheduled with a minimum of 10 people. The parties can be held at the Mount Vernon Community Center for a $30 room rental. If you want a private party at the Community Center\, you pay the $30. You can bring snacks and drinks (alcoholic or non). If you do not have 10 or do not want to pay the $30 room rental for a private class\, we can open up the class to the public to fill the empty spots up to 16 people and we will pay the $30 Community Center charge.  \n CUSTOMIZATIONS: Some customizations hand painted and/or designed by Hugh Hoffman can be made to the barn quilts with pre-approval. Minimal customizations such as the addition of a letter on Design # 10 or #13 is an additional $10 charge. Custom designs not included in our catalog can be done if approved by Hugh for an additional $20 as long as they do not have a lot of color-next-to-color painting and if they can be designed to work with the BARNS & BREWS method. Submit any customizations with your design choice when reserving your spot. Approval will be sent in your return confirmed email. \n CONTACT: If you have questions\, please contact us via our BARNS & BREWS Facebook page or webpage http://www.barnsandbrews.com/contact.html. Or text or call Deanna (319) 560-6789. \nPLEASE SHARE
