Handmade for the Holidays.

You don’t need to be Martha Stewart to make beautiful holiday gifts. Bring the whole family to ARTBEAT for a day of gift making and leave with elegant gifts for friends and relatives at a fraction of the price you would pay in a gift store. Instruction freely given. Elegance guaranteed!
Special projects are offered every Saturday. Projects take about one hour to complete and are open to ages 4 to adult. Children younger than 8 require an adult helper.

Don’t miss Plenty – our annual roundup of the best work local and regional artists have to offer.

Opening Thursday, November 19 with a reception from 7-9 pm, our salon style holiday show features new work by over 50 local artists. Check here for a full list.

PLENTY celebrates the artistic bounty in our midst, highlighting our latest finds from the area.  In addition to painting, drawing, printmaking and photography, we’ve added sculpture, wood construction, and even pieces made from flower petals.

The work is intended to be modest in size and budget – up to 20″ x 20″ and under $750 – and make great holiday gifts.  Folks are encouraged to take home their pieces upon purchase, rather than at the exhibit’s close.  Perfect for Santa or Hanukkah Harry to pick up on the way to a chimney or menorah near you.
