It's Friiiiiiidaaaaaaaaayyyyyy! Which means another weekend, and another Weekend Guide post! Don't let the rain spoil your plans - this weekend's show is inside. Talk about perfect timing!
This weekend, make your way a smidge east to Parker, Texas, for the Conception Art Show's Dallas debut. With exhibits in New York City, Philadelphia, Miami, and Europe, the contemporary art show has been featured in the Wall St Journal, Paper Magazine, and ABC News. The show will present the work of emerging to established artists directly to collectors and art enthusiasts, allowing them the opportunity to purchase work directly from the artist at the tipping point of their career.

This weekend's show will feature over 50 national and international artists and designers, including Etsy Dallas' own Wayne Works.

Here are the details:
Conception Art Show

Well helloooooooooooooooo, fall! Pumpkin spice is in the air (pretty much anywhere you look, am I right?), the heat has finally broken, and we're finally wearing shirts with sleeves again! Which means, we are MORE than excited to go out and do more things.

For the Dudes: A Spring Bash Buyer's Guide

There will be SO MUCH good stuff at this year's Spring Bash that making this round-up was really, really hard! There will literally be something for EVERYBODY, and the dudes are no exception.

T-shirts are always a good choice, and Dowdy Studio really delivers. This "Drink Local" tee is one of the many, many garments they will bring to the Spring Bash.


Wayne Works is new to the team this year, and we're really excited about what they'll bring to the Bash! One of the pieces that stood out to me the most was this Industrial Reclaimed Wood Strut Shelf. Minimal, slightly rustic, and super sturdy. I want one in my office!


Tread Studios is also a new addition to the team. I'm sure you've probably seen their work circulating around town - their watercolors are so great!


Let us not forget about Father's Day, which is coming up on June 21st. Use Toko Dots' colorful card to tell Dad how you feel!


Help the guy in your life be prepared for, well, ANYTHING, with this Zombie Apocalypse Survival Guide notebook from Made by Rori. You never know when they'll need it!


You can never have too many places to stash keys, cash, or other small items, and this Mojave Leather Bowl from SCOUT + LILLY will do the trick quite nicely.


Beard maintenance can get tiresome, I'm sure, but this beautifully made beard comb will surely alleviate some of that stress. You can find this at new member Big T Wood Works' booth on May 2nd.


And finally, this really gorgeous Lava Rock Bracelet by Expressions Bracelets is a great, subtle accessory. And bonus: a portion of each sale goes to Autism Awareness.


Come and see all of these artists (and so many more!) on May 2nd at the Southside Events Center at Gilley's Dallas! The Bash will run from 11 am to 6 pm. Be sure to bring your reusable tote bag for all of your goodies.

 We will be posting artist previews and other information on our blog, Facebook page, and Instagram account, so make sure you're following us for up-to-the-date information. We will be using the hashtags #etsydallas and #2015springbash for all event posts, so check us out!
