Are you looking for a unique gift for someone special? Do you need a fantastic piece of art to decorate your home or workplace? Do you have gift or ornament exchanges coming up? If you answer yes to any of these questions, and you like to support the work of local artists and their charitable programs, then the Art League of Baytown’s 70th Annual Holiday Arts & Crafts Gift Gallery is a must see. The Gift Gallery opens November 19th at 11 am, at the Art Center of Baytown, located at 110 W. Texas Avenue in Baytown.Make the Art League of Baytown’s Holiday Arts & Crafts Gift Gallery a part of your holiday tradition! The Gift Gallery is a long-standing tradition that started before the Art League was even an official organization (Technically this is the 72nd annual Gift Gallery. But it is the 70th since the organization was officially formed.) Each year, in addition to the wonderful art that is always available at the Art Center, local artists and artisans set up impressive displays of hand-crafted gift items, holiday décor and more for the Art League of Baytown’s Holiday Arts & Crafts Gift Gallery. Choose from original artwork, handmade cards, Christmas ornaments and décor, pottery, jewelry, hand-sewn items, and a variety of other unique selections. From stocking stuffers to impressive gifts, and a nice selection for your ornament and gift exchanges, prices start at just $5. Something for everyone and every budget. A portion of all sales go toward funding programs such as the Rising Stars art class for special needs adults and arts and crafts workshops for the Oncology program at Houston Methodist Baytown Hospital.
The Holiday Arts & Crafts Gift Gallery opens November 29th and continues through December 28th. The Art Center is located at 110 W. Texas Avenue in Baytown and is open to the public Thursday through Saturday, 11-5.
