Are
you looking to get your shop-on this Friday, but not looking forward to
fighting the crazy crowds at the malls? Are you tired of the same-old
super store gift selection? Well if you are (and even if your not) we
have just the suggestion for you.
This weekend, 1300, Bazaar
Bizarre and Assemble are teaming up to provide an alternative to the
old day-after-thanksgiving shopping experience. Over 50 participating
artists will call the 1300 complex home this weekend for a all out
opportunity to provide one of a kind gifts for the holidays gift giving
season, all the while supporting local artists... getting cash into
their pockets as well for their gift giving desires as well.

As
a special addition, Greg Der Ananian, Bazaar Bizarre’s founder, will
also be in attendance to sign his new book Bazaar Bizarre: Not Your
Granny's Crafts.
In accompaniment to Bazaar Bizarre, Assemble
Gallery will be hosting a special Holiday Showcase for the weekend,
featuring local artists and crafters.
New artwork will be on
display and available for purchases at rock-bottom prices by the likes
of: Kris Barnes, Andy Baron, Jessica Berbaraich, Mary Dennis, Julia
Dennis, Brian Kelly, Lauren Herzak-Bauman, Arabella Proffer and Colin
Toke. Special product-lines by Heart Break Nurse, Girly Pants, Strhess
Clothing, Super Industrial Love, and There-She-Goes will also be
featured in Assemble store at special holiday prices as well.
An
opening reception for Assemble's Holiday showcase, and a preview party
for Bazaar Bizarre will take place this Friday from 7pm-10pm. So swing
by 1300 and Assemble, have a drink, relax, have a drink or two, shop
and most of all, avoid the mall-madness this Friday.
Bazaar
Bizarre and the Holiday Showcase will also be open Saturday from 12pm-
9pm and on Sunday from 12pm-6pm. Please note though, since many of the
pieces are one-of-a-kind items, and this show is a first come first
serve event, it's better to shop early for the best selection. All
items bought during the event can be taken home same day.
