Ticket sales Tuesday for 2013 West Seattle Garden Tour

| Gardening | West Seattle news

The West Seattle Garden Tour is now less than one month away, and ticket sales are days away, starting this Tuesday (June 25th). Each ticket is $18 (children under 12 are free) and includes the noon lecture with author and outdoor-living expert Debra Prinzing. The tour is 9 am to 5 pm on Sunday, July 21st. Here are the ticket locations in our area:

Admiral Metropolitan Market, 2320 42nd SW

Junction True Value, 4747 44th SW

Village Green Perennial Nursery, 10223 26th Ave SW

West Seattle Nursery, 5275 California SW

To the right, you’re seeing the winning art for this year’s WSGT poster, “Blooming Palette,” created by Carrie Schmitt. Carrie receiving her prize check for $500 at Windermere West Seattle during last week’s June West Seattle Art Walk:

Posters will be sold for $10 during the tour, and Carrie’s original piece will be part of a silent auction during the tour on July 21st. The money raised, as well as other tour proceeds, will benefit these organizations.

Congratulations Carrie. A lovely piece of art and very nicely befitting of the WSGT.

BTW-I hope the WSGT folks will consider making T-shirts of the posters each year. Previous years have also heralded nice art. I would like to have a T-shirt for the lovely art as well as to put forth the WSGT. I suspect T-shirts would be best sellers!

Can’t wait for next month’s Garden Tour! There’s so much to learn from all the different gardens. Let’s hope the weather stays as beautiful as it has been!

Beautiful artwork! I’d love to purchase a T-shirt of that as well.

Thank you so much, West Seattle Garden Tour, and to everybody for all the kind comments! I’m honored to be a part of this great event. This is a dream come true for me. I can’t wait to see the lovely gardens!

@CathyG,

The omission of JTV from poster and website is all due to CURRENT WSGT members and their incompetence, look no further, there is no conspiracy, just cluelessness/laziness.

Sorry, comment time is over.
