Arts Illuminated talk show and sale: ‘Tis the season for holiday gifts

As we approach the holiday season, our next Arts Illuminated show will focus on small, affordable works.  Expect lots of artsy items available as gifts!   We’ll meet again at Steeple Playhouse, Thursday, Dec. 10, starting at 6 p.m.

Hosted by The New Bedford Light, this free event features short, one-on-one sessions with selected creators, framed by samples of their work.

Stay for our signature Afterglow reception, where you can mingle with the artists, browse works up close, buy directly, and enjoy refreshments. The emphasis on this show will be opportunities to purchase items as the holiday giving season nears.   All profits go directly to the artists.  Help make that cowbell ring each time a sale is made.

For the second time, the upcoming Arts Illuminated will be held in conjunction with AHA! Night in New Bedford. Planning to go? Add a short walk to the Steeple Playhouse at 159 William St. after 6 p.m.

Call for art reminder:   We’re accepting applications until Sunday, Nov. 22.   Visit the Arts Illuminated page for more information and to upload your entry.
