Sunday, December 7

from noon to six


Please join us again this year as we celebrate the work by artisans from our own back yard.  Each piece on display was lovingly made for a creative connoisseur -- like you!

It is always great to support the work of artists in your community and to share that work with folks on your holiday shopping list. 

Yes, you can find your own one-of-a-kind treasures right here in the neighborhood!

Join us in our holiday pledge to

Buy Local.  Buy Handmade!
