NOV 10, 2023 - The Holiday Art Fair, now in its 43rd year, is set to showcase the works of 39 talented artists in a festive setting that rings in the spirit of the season. From 10 AM to 5 PM on Saturday, November 18, and 12 PM to 5 PM on Sunday, November 19, guests will be able to wander through a trail of local artist vendors inside the Brick Lobby to purchase handmade items and special gifts for the most wonderful time of the year.
