'Tis the Season
/On December 2-3, TRAHC’s 14th annual Holiday Arts Market will offer a festive shopping event showcasing artists and artisans
‘Tis the season! Once again, it’s that time of year to head on over to TRAHC’s 14th annual Holiday Arts Market at the Regional Arts Center, located at 321 West 4th Street in Texarkana, Texas. This year’s festive holiday shopping experience will take place Friday, December 2, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., and Saturday, December 3, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Thirty-nine local artists and artisans will show off their talents, and everything you see will be custom made and crafted. Paintings, jewelry, scarves, pottery, ceramics, sculptures, wood-turned items, handmade soaps, local honey, baked goods, Christmas ornaments, leather goods, photography, doll clothes, walking sticks, and hand-sewn items will be among the many items available for purchase. Many items will be one of a kind, which makes them even more special as a gift. Live holiday music will help set the mood for shopping, and TRAHC’s Gift Shop, For Arts’ Sake, will be open for additional shopping.
The Holiday Arts Market began 14 years ago when TRAHC wanted to offer a place for local artists to showcase and sell their artistry to the public at a reasonable price and in a comfortable setting. And the team knew that the holiday season would be the perfect time of the year to offer this unique event.
There is no entrance fee for shoppers, and the Regional Arts Center building is wheelchair accessible from the back of the building with a ramp. Inside, three floors will be filled with artists that are accessible by stairs and an elevator.
