Four Stops for Holiday Art in Kalamazoo This Weekend

Some of the best gifts are handmade... and if you find yourself not-so-artistically inclined, you might want to leave the DIY to a local artist. Thankfully, there are four great stops this weekend where you can gaze upon their wares and cross a few names off your list.

Holiday Art Sale at KIA - Kalamazoo Institute of Art, Friday, December 1 (4pm-8pm) through Saturday, December 2 (9am-3pm). Ceramics, jewelry, glass, hand-woven scarves, paintings, photographs, metal sculpture - it's all there. So whether you want wearable art, or art in your yard, find one-of-a-kind gifts.
