Local artisans celebrate the season
with fine craft.

Kicking off the holiday season in style, the Columbia Museum of Art Museum Shop hosts its largest ever annual Holiday Artisans’ Fair and Sale, Saturday, November 19 from 10:00 a.m. until 4:00 p.m., and boasts a dizzying array of handmade jewelry, ceramics, textiles, pine needle baskets, scarves, gourd birdhouses, ornaments and more in a wide range of styles, designs and pricing.

This annual event attracts scores of curious shoppers anxious to pounce on bargains for their holiday lists. Complimentary gift-wrapping is available, and this year, shoppers have the convenience of a second checkout station for quick and easy purchasing.

The much anticipated fall exhibition, Nature and the Grand American Vision opens to the public on the same day!

Museum members receive an additional five percent off their regular Museum Shop discounts during the event and all purchases support the exhibitions and education programs at the Columbia Museum of Art. Memberships can be purchased here.
