Bonjour everyone !

I was offered to participate in a special holiday market at the Helms Bakery District in Culver City, where I will have my own booth marked “Mariette Artine”.

Many vendors -outdoors —Art, jewelry, ceramics, and so much more !
I will have prints and cards of my artwork for sale too. ABSOLUTELY NO obligation to purchase anything. Come browse or simply drop by to say hi, meet and mingle. No admission charge for this outdoor holiday market.

Lots of food and coffee options available in a BEAUTIFUL outdoor setting - 40+ vendors will be exhibiting. So come say hi ! 🎄

Market officially starts at 11:00 (goes 11-4)

Come say hi- Id love to see you 😀🎄

Yes- it's a tad early for a Sunday morning, but trust me, the finer things in life, like a nice warm baked croissant, you don't want to miss out.

Let’s enjoy a Sunday morning croissant and coffee !
🥐🤎☕️ We will be trying one of the BEST places in L.A. where authentic traditional croissant-making takes place.

***

So—What IS considered a quality authentically baked croissant??
Well - we will be using all our senses in this fun experiment and see what your taste buds tell you. We will chat and learn about what makes a great product and secrets about the croissant baking process 🤎

PLAN:
Step 1: We will grab our place in line at Proof (this place is small, so seats not guaranteed), and purchase our individual orders.
Step 2: We walk over for a coffee at one of the spots across the street , and linger over some friendly chat time, just like the French do!
🇫🇷🥐☕️

RUNNING late? With these popular bakeries, there usually is a line that forms. Therefore, in consideration to others who arrive on time, the on-time group will get in line, and others we will kindly ask you get to the back of the line and catch up with the group after ordering your items.

À bientôt!
Mariette
