Tabling at PTFF

We loaded up our little cart with supplies and trundled down Water Street to support of our friends at Trailbound Sketches by bringing Trail Tiles to share with our local community.

Thank you to the Port Townsend Film Festival for hosting us at the Cotton Building lounge on Saturday, September 21st! We loaded up our little cart with supplies and trundled down Water Street bright and early to support of our friends at Trailbound Sketches and artist-videographer Max Romey by bringing Trail Tiles, their latest paper product, to share with our local community.

We even sketched our view from the table! With palettes and toolkits, our table invited festival-goers to engage with art and learn about Max’s short film, If You Give a Beach a Bottle, which had two screenings over the weekend. In this short yet impactful film, Max uses watercolor to tell the story of marine debris from a remote beach in Alaska. If you haven’t seen it yet, watch it below!
