Filling the Galleria with booth displays, the event will feature clothing, jewelry, paintings, photography, pottery and other objects by local artists whose works are for sale in the Harn Museum of Art Store. A portion of the profits from each sale supports the Harn Museum.

“This is an opportunity for the community to meet the store’s local consignment artists in an intimate indoor setting” said Kathryn Rush, Harn Museum Store manager. “Everyone should take advantage of the increased inventory, and purchase art made locally.”

Nature photographs by John Moran and wood turned bowls by Sylvia Scudder make thoughtful gifts for anyone who loves the environment.

For the fashionable ladies on your list, consider handmade jewelry by Melanie Brewster, Emily Covell, Lea Hale, Sandy Matasick, Peter Senesac, Laura Smith, Sally Stein, Judith Greathouse, or Ira Winarsky of Babbette’s Beads. Pair the jewelry with clothes designed by Nina Bergen for an entire look.

Pottery by Kate Murray and Lee Shaw, ceramic sculpture by Ira Winarsky, and glass works by Jay McIver are distinctive gift options for anyone on your list. Paintings by Eleanor Blair, Gary Borse, Kana Handel, Miriam Novak, Peter Senesac, Vivian Jendzio and Carol Barber also will be available for purchase.

Admission is free. For more information, call 352-392-9826 or visit www.harn.ufl.edu.
