Are You looking for something to brighten your holiday season? Consider shopping local. These are two Sterling silver earring purchases I’ve made from River City Gallery so far. I love earrings! In La Crosse Wisconsin there are amazing artists creating jewelry, paintings, sculptures, making music, and much more.

Today December 3rd is La Crosse‘s annual ArtWalk with participating venues such as River City Gallery, Grounded café, Larsons General, & Turtle stack brewery. I will be at River city Gallery from 4 to 7 PM greeting guests at the open house. Tomorrow is also the one-year anniversary of River city gallery opening. They are having an open house from 4 to 7 as well.

The Main located downtown at 422 Main St La Crosse will be hanging artwork, hosting comedy, music, and live painting. AN ARTISTIC CELEBRATION OF THE LONG NIGHT’S MOON – A Mixed Media Art Event Featuring Bill Miller will be December 18. I will be live painting during the concert. Tickets are $25 with five dollars of each ticket sale going to the children’s miracle network. Here’s a link to the ticket page. December is a really exciting month so don’t miss it just because it’s getting cold. Embrace the warmth of art!
