Special shoutout to photographer Machel Spence, who not only has sent photos of the C & P Coffee (WSB sponsor) Holiday Bazaar before we and our cameras could even hit the road, but also is one of the most prolific contributors to the West Seattle Blog photo pool on Flickr – take a look and see her beautiful photos of local fungi and forests. She’s among the artists and other vendors at C & P till 3 pm today. (Other bazaars are happening around West Seattle right now too – as listed here, with other holiday – and non-holiday! – happenings.)

ADDED 4:39 PM: Two more photos from the C & P event – which drew quite the crowd!

That’s the overview from just one of C & P’s rooms – we also snagged a shot of artist Barbara Noonan, of Mornin Noonan Night Studios downtown:

C & P is a hub of activity many days/nights of the week – from live music to art classes to monthly poetry readings; you can check out the calendar here. (And remember a diaper drive is under way for WestSide Baby and food-bank drive, with donations welcome for both!)
