Members of the Gulf Coast Artists’ Alliance celebrate with their annual “The Gift of Art” show and sale. It’s a great opportunity to get inexpensive handmade gifts, ornaments, decorations, holiday jewelry and small works of art before the holidays. The ever-popular and fun “Mystery Grab Bags” are available from your favorite artists as well.

A reception will be held during St. Pete’s Second Saturday Art Walk November 8 from 5 to 9pm at the GCAA ArtWorks Gallery. Mingle with the artists, enjoy delicious refreshments and listen to the music of The Ed and Nick Trio. There is plenty of free parking, and it is two blocks from the 58th Street SunRunner bus stop. Admission is free and open to the public. In addition, outdoor “Artsy Indie Markets” will be held Saturdays in November and December starting November 15, from 11am – 4pm.
