Chelmsford Community Pop-up Art Shop

So excited my mannequins and other art boxes are in the window of a town centre shop!!!!

This is the pop up shop organised through the Chelmsford Mobility Scheme charity. Lots of other lovely art to buy, in a great variety of styles. Looks like its going to be busy as people were coming in the shop even before it was set up properly.

 Bit untidy as they are just setting up.

 Cherry and Andrea tarting up the window.

My Edwardian mannequin and two art boxes.


Lastly here is Cherry organizing every one. Seriously thanks so much Cherry for all your hard work and friendship.

  8. Does a pop up shop mean it is just there a short time and not permanent?
