There are all sorts of great things to do tonight, but this is by far my favorite -- the 7th Annual Holiday Art Market at the Northville Art House. This is a part of the First Friday Experience which takes place throughout the downtown area of Northville.
Hand-crafted work in painting, printmaking, glass, mosaic, fiber, photography, jewelry and mixed media will be for sale by well-known local artists, including Kim Bearden, George Bochnig, Barb Buchanan, Alan Casadei, Nancy Cassel, Janice Degen, Barbara De
mgen, Kathy Eaton, Took Gallagher, Mary Kernahan, Peggy Kerwan, Mary Keys, Deb Kolar, Galina Koriduzki, Andrea Lang, Lisa Mancos, Liz Messer, Carla Morabito, Judith Waterman, Donna Weber, Jessica Woodard, Julie Woodard, Myriam Zamor, Shadia Zayed, and Marga Zieger. These artists have been asked to supply unique items specially priced for holiday gift giving!
gorgeous wreaths and fabulous themed gift baskets
The gift baskets are raffle items with contents donated by local artists and merchants. Tickets are $1 each or 11 for $10. Tickets are available beginning tonight and right up until the night of the drawings -- which will take place on December 2nd during the December First Friday festivities.
