You can take care of your holiday shopping list and help yourself to delicious drinks and hors d’oeuvres all while enjoying the sounds of the holidays. We also have several events planned for our members during the gala including a silent auction, door prizes and a photographer capturing the evening’s festivities!

All items will be “cash and carry” only (no holds), and Wilson Arts accepts cash, credit cards, and checks.

The Holiday Gift Gallery will be open to the public beginning Friday, November 15 and will run through Saturday, December 23. Please stop by during our gallery hours and enjoy a leisurely shopping experience – our elves will be standing by to help!
