Get a QA Farmers Market poster while they last

qafmaposterRemember that cute poster the Queen Anne Farmers Market had pinned up all over the neighborhood this summer? The memorable artwork with two red beets on it was by local artist Elizabeth Mullaly. And evidently it was so popular that the market staff had to order more several times. Not only did Queen Anne-ers buy up every last poster and loyally put them up in homes and shop windows, but according to market chair Julie Whitehorn, orders were even coming in from cities outside Seattle.

“The art is local but the appeal is clearly universal,” she wrote on the market blog yesterday.

The market is planning to have a new poster designed every year so that the beautiful artwork can be collected in a series. If you’re interested in getting this year’s poster, they are going for $15 each at Queen Anne Frame, and according to Whitehorn there are still a few left. For the hardcore collector, there are “archival quality” signed and numbered prints available for $100. All proceeds benefit the nonprofit market.
