Jam Off 2011 details

Easter weekend rapidly approaches and so does Jam Off 2011 featuring The Mister’s latest batch of jam against Mrs Jam Off plus a whole lot of other competitors in an open competition – attracted so much attention last year it’s gone public!

The Mister & Mrs Jam-Off were in the paper a couple of weeks ago promoting the event.

“I don’t want to make elitist jams, I’d rather make them for the people.”

Details:

• Saturday 23rd April 2011
• Part of Craft 2.0 at the Dowse Art Museum, 45 Laings Road, Lower Hutt
• Craft 2.0 runs from 10.00am – 3.00pm
• Jam Off starts at 2.00pm with the announcement of finalists in Jam Off 2011 after a private short-listing session with the judges
• There’s a head to head judged competition between The Mister’s and Mrs Jam-Off’s jams, a judged competition for the finalists and a public vote from all entrants for a People’s Choice Award.

The Jam Off blog has got loads of information on it:

• Read about the judges
• Find out who all the contestants are
• Read some of the blog posts contestants have put forward about what they’re making & other preparatory snippets.

I guess we better get the competition box down from it’s resting place on the top shelf of the pantry and see which jam is going to be submitted …
