Holiday Boutique
Share the creativity and spirit of local artists with your loved ones this year by selecting original gifts of art at the Calaveras Arts Council's Gallery on Main Street in San Andreas.
Over 50 artists will have a variety of items displayed in the 20th annual Affordable Gifts of Art Show and Sale Holiday Boutique, beginning November 10 and ending January 5, 2013.
Gallery Calaveras will have two Holiday Open Houses -- one is Saturday November 10, from 1:00pm to 3:00pm and also on Saturday, December 08, noon – 3:00pm, which coincides with the San Andreas Christmas Show in the Town Hall.
You don't have to drive great distances to shopping malls. Shop local. Unlike on-line shopping, you can touch and see the items you're buying.
They are made in Calaveras by locals you may know. Artists have painstakingly put their hearts into each creation. What more could you want? Free gift wrapping and free parking?
They've got that too. Parking is easily accessible behind Gallery Calaveras where there's a parking lot off of California Street.
Arts Council members receive a 10% discount off their purchases. The Calaveras Visitors Bureau VIP discount is also available.
From small paintings to ceramic garden plaques to artsy cards, the variety of affordable art is endless.
Among the items are original watercolors, oil and acrylic paintings , photographs, ceramic vases and sculpture, jewelry, candles, fabric purses, painted scarves and fabric bolas, diachronic glass, ornaments, CD's, books, gallery gift certificates, tickets for Holiday Home Concert, Ovations Performing Arts Series 2013, and Chairs for Charity, boxed cards, personal and home products, and so much more.
