Phase One Complete!

Thanks to all our great volunteers, we managed to clear out our space (donated generously by Wissahickon Charter School), and start the clean up. It had been used as a storage space by the school, so the first job was to clear out all the old boxes.
Here is a "before" picture:




First we took out the boxes,




Then we cleaned the walls and the floor,



uncovered the window,




and pretty much cleared the place out.


Everyone had a great time




and even the little ones helped out...




Phase Two will be painting the walls, putting in shelving, and organizing our donations for the space. We're looking forward to another Fiesta or two this summer to complete Phase two.

Thanks to all who helped:

So let's get blogging about this. Helen saw some neat fabric that might create some visual unification for whatever we end up using as tables in the coming weeks. I am going to Gaffney's this week to check it out. Any luck with rugs, anyone? Or FREE PAINT? (even better!)

Anyways, let's use this space to talk together a little about what's happening, give ideas, critiques, etc. See ya around and AMAZING work yesterday... wow.
