And gives the shoppers a chance to purchase one-of-a-kind artworks, which cannot be found in chain stores. There are no imported items at this Bazaar. In addition, the buyer is purchasing work directly from the artist and can meet them face to face.” Guild President Judianne Shannon says, “Even if you have been to our Holiday Bazaar in the past, there are new artists and new items to see. All of our artists have been juried into this show so that the buyer can be assure of a quality product.” There will be a Silent Auction of artworks donated by the participating artists. Cheryl DeLain, jewelry artist says, “Our artwork is special because it is from all local artists and often of local scenes. Our Bazaar features really special deals on silent auction items where the proceeds help support our Off Track Gallery.” Each of the participating artists have a real passion for their craft and it shows.
