Seattle, May 29
For the second year in a row the Seattle Luthiers Group made
a strong showing at the Northwest Folklife Festival held at Seattle Center
on Memorial Day weekend.
In a booth centrally located against the back wall of the Music
Emporium, the group exhibited works by its members ranging from harps to
ukuleles.
Several individuals made sales or received commisions at the event.
Although some of last year's heavy hitters were noticeably absent due to
business or personal obligations, an emerging new generation of instument
makers arrived to fill in the ranks. Returning from last year were Clint
Ferrell, Jason Lollar, David Dorning, Brent McElroy, Dave Krause and Paul
Hass.

| The first one was no fluke -- The
cetation creations of David Krause continue to propagate. These two
beautiful instruments were displayed at the Northwest Folklife Festival,
above a matching arch-top guitar with dolphin-shaped f-holes. |
