SAN DIEGO —- More than 300,000 people are expected to pack Balboa Park’s 32nd annual December Nights festival next weekend, which features free museum admission, continuous live entertainment and gifts and food from around the world.

The festival runs from 5 to 10 p.m. Dec. 4 and from noon to 10 p.m. Dec. 5.

Billed as San Diego’s largest free community festival, December Nights expanded five years ago to include daytime activities, and the change has helped manage the crowds, which have swelled over the past three years.

Again we are indebted to Mike Brown for documenting Sunday at ArtWalk not just for The Frame Maker, but for many of the ArtWalk artists, too. Check out this link to Mike’s account on Flickr, Mike Brown Photo Booth and see more about our booth and the rest of ArtWalk, too, including great shots of our Business of Art scholarship winner doing her TV spot with KUSI’s Lena Lewis.

With the technology and assistance of our new friends at Moebius Color, we are creating, not just a cool booth, but a show of new fine art prints by San Diego artists, which unveils our new artist services program The Frame Maker has developed with Programming Director John Hiemstra.

The prints we will display at ArtWalk are part of a somewhat larger show, “Artists Proof”, that continues through May 30 in The Frame Maker showroom in the Mission Hills/Little Italy section of San Diego.

This show explores the possibilities of fine art digital printing (powered by Moebius) combined with state of the art reproduction photography by Mike Brown, utilized for the first time by five San Diego artists working in paint and traditional printmaking techniques, who also work at The Frame Maker.

We will post more about these events with pics, and also more about our new artist services program, as we progress, but be sure to plan and come down to ArtWalk and see the combined work of The Frame Maker staff, Moebius, Mike Brown, and our Business of Art Scholarship winner Jessica Siemens at booths #768 & #769, across from the Piazza Basilone fountain on Fir Street at India

Starting with a follow-up to the project we did for San Diego Coastkeeper’s Ocean Gala back in November:

We love supporting worthy causes in our community, and like anyone, we also love to be appreciated for it. Below is an image of the acknowledgement letter we received with a very sweet handwritten note from Coastkeeper executive director Bruce Reznick.
