Art in the Garden set Aug. 21 in Goodman

The annual Art in the Garden is planned Saturday, Aug. 21, at the home of Lynn and James Stankevich, 105 Main St. in Goodman, Wis. More than 30 vendors plan to participate.

GOODMAN, Wis. — The annual Art in the Garden will be 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 21, at the home of Lynn and James Stankevich, 105 Main St. in Goodman, Wis.

Shoppers will be able to browse the garden paths as vendors will be tucked away among the hostas, lilies, ferns and ponds. Jewelry work, quilt work, and other forms of crafts and art such as paintings, pottery, cloth items, cards and garden art are set up beneath towering maples or in the sunken gazebo-area garden.

Vendors and visitors alike can sit and soak up the atmosphere and relax as they shop, sell or listen to live music by the band Cuttin Grass from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Lynn Stankevich reminds vendors to call to reserve space at $15 per booth. Space is limited and spots fill fast. Those interested can call 715-336-2077 or the cell phone at 715-548-1366.

Vendors should communicate special needs, if any. All vendors supply their own tables and tents for their space. The Stankeviches remind shoppers that food and refreshments also will be for sale throughout the five hours.

The Stankeviches and the Varsity Club of Goodman-Armstrong Creek schools use proceeds from this event for local scholarships.

In the Stankeviches’ case, the scholarship honors their son, Brian, a cancer victim at a very young age.

The Varsity Club also uses any food and beverage profits for their scholarships to worthy students. They sell hot dogs, bratwurst, hamburgers and beverages. Among the extras will be homemade sauerkraut carefully prepared by Brian’s grandparents.

In addition, pure maple syrup from Brian’s uncle and artwork from Brian’s family members will be for sale.

There will be more than 30 vendors and a large assortment of bucket raffles that guests may purchase tickets for a chance to win.

The Stankevich family looks forward to welcoming visitors to their yard for a day of shopping while listening to live music and browsing the gardens.

Wearing masks will be optional and they ask shoppers to limit handling items at the booths until ready to purchase.
