During this event celebrating February holidays, local artists will be offering demonstrations and answering questions about their one-of-a-kind pottery, jewelry, candles, upcycled clothing and soapmaking techniques. Information about West Orange Arts Council (WOAC) membership and art gallery pop-up exhibit opportunities will be available as will gift certificates for future shopping, making it easy to give the gift of art and support local artists.
Attendees can win door prizes which include tickets to one of the West Orange Classic Film Festival’s upcoming comedies plus post-film discussion (Sundays at 2 pm at the AMC Theatre at Essex Green).
Shoppers can also enjoy the current “Inside Out” exhibit featuring WAE Center artists. The JSDD’s WAE Center is a holistic, creative and expressive arts learning center for people with disabilities, providing opportunities for members to explore creating fine art.
