Who knew it was possible to fit the Holiday Artisan Market (28 vendors), a holiday Food Drive, and an art show of work by students of Sara Broderick at College of the Redwoods - all comfortably inside of Wright's! The Artisan Holiday Market opened at 11 am and was open through the Art Walk. It opens again Sunday morning at 11 am and was organized by Len and Violet Burton (above).
Karen Beaver, with her First Place graphite winner in the College of the Redwoods Art Exhibit.
Food Bank donations were accepted in front of the College of the Redwoods display.
Jean Johnston offered her ever popular jewelry at the Artisan Holiday Market.
Booths also offered fiber art, wood crafts, clay art, photographs, paintings and more.
Connie Lundquist (in red) had a beautiful display of her custom jewelry, behind her is a booth with leather goods, and that's local oil painter Frank Gustafson in the back.
Frank Gustafson enjoys chatting with customers who stop by his booth to admire his oils.
The Tsunami Swing Band enlivened the library during Art Walk. You can see an exhibit of Len Burton's oil paintings at the Library this month.
Just a sample of Len Burton's work at the Library.
Sassie Lassies entertained at A Wild Bird and Backyard General Store.
Nancy Ehorn's fused glass art and jewelry was featured at A Wild Bird and Backyard General Store during the Art Walk. You'll find more of her work at the store this month.
John Gehl (Artist of the Month at Manley Art Center). John modestly calls himself a "Blacksmith who takes snapshots". Come enjoy the rest of his work at Manley this month and you'll see that his work goes well beyond a "snapshot".
Mary Gehl selling raffle tickets for the annual Basket of Cheer, a fundraiser for Manley Art Center. The drawing will be December 20, so there is still time to stop by Manley and get your tickets.
