Nearly all decorating ideas filter
through the imagination of Charlotte Chrissos. Since the first festival, she has done all
the large scale paintings and backdrops. She
has the gift of thinking and planning in large
numbers and is never cowed by the logistics of
landscaping and decorating a cavernous tent.
Always supported by her husband, Bill, they
contribute days and
nights of their time.
Working right up until opening, and with
many helping hands, they manage to convert
Park and Goodale into a little corner of the
Mediterranean.
The Horiatiko Spiti, or Village Room,
has been a real crowd pleaser for 14 years. A
Sunday School room is converted into a typical village home. Here visitors can see examples of handwork, furnishings, and" utensils
used in the villages of Greece. One of the key
planners for this room is Eugenia Karonis,
shown embroidering.
