THE HOLIDAY MARKET VENDOR SPOTLIGHT: All Mapped Out

Posted by VTGCLT | vendor spotlight | No Comments

Our vendor spotlight posts give you a chance to meet some of our amazing vendors before the Vintage Charlotte Holiday Market on November 16, 2013 at The Fillmore Charlotte.

Please welcome Candice from All Mapped Out:

My name is Candice and I’m a recovering academic. After earning a PhD in Geography, I found that all I really wanted to do was ‘make stuff’. So, armed with formal training as a cartographer and informal training as a picker/collector of vintage wares (under the tutelage of my awesome parents), I took on the new creative path of All Mapped Out in 2012, designing and making geography and cartography inspired home décor and apparel.

I now have a reason to horde maps and atlases and I take full advantage of it! I repurpose ‘outdated’ and vintage maps into coaster sets, using actual maps thoroughly sealed onto ceramic tiles to create one-of-a-kind items of places and themes all over the world.

I also design geography-inspired t-shirts for the map nerd in all of us as well as original designs screenprinted onto vintage maps for one-of-a-kind wall art.

My goal is to teach my love of geography and cartography outside of the classroom through my products while helping folks add a sense of place to their space. Bottom line, I’m a huge map nerd and would love to help you find ‘where’ you’re looking for!

Artist Seeks typists for performance at DNC:

Sheryl Oring’s “I Wish to Say” typing pool will perform at the Bechtler Museum of Modern Art as part of CaolinaFest, the public celebration of the first day of the 2012 Democratic National Convention. The Greensboro-based artist is looking for volunteer typists who can accurately take dictation on manual typewriters…Typists should either be experienced at secretarial work or actors who can take on the role of intense listener.

The performance will take place on Monday, Sept. 3 from 1 to 4 pm.

To be considered for a role in the project, please watch this video of related work: http://youtu.be/aKBbGlYE4AI

Then write a brief email explaining your interests, qualifications and availability to: oring@iwishtosay.org . Phone interviews will be scheduled in late August.

Typists will dress in vintage dresses or suits (cardigans suitable for men); we will provide most clothing, but please note availability of period attire in your application. We will also provide hair styling and limited makeup, as well as photo documentation of the performances.

Typists will need to be available for a two-hour preliminary meeting prior to the show (tentatively scheduled for Thursday, August 30) and for prep and performance on September 3^rd beginning at 10:00 AM.
