Holiday Sip & Shop
Join us for our Holiday Sip & Shop at Grovewood Gallery on December 6-7, from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. During this annual event, customers can pick up unique gallery items at a 10% discount (excludes wind sculptures), watch live demonstrations by local artists, and indulge in delightful beverages provided by our friends at Metro Wines on Charlotte St.
This Holiday Sip & Shop offers a refreshing alternative to big-box retail chains, as every item in our shop is American-made. Explore an array of festive delights and one-of-a-kind gifts, all responsibly made in small American studios. Our spacious showroom, spanning over 9,000 square feet, features finely crafted jewelry, wooden bowls and utensils, ceramic tableware, blown glass, handwoven scarves and blankets, and much more. It’s a shopping experience you won’t want to miss!

Come and learn more about the diversity of the craft of chair seat weaving through her Brief History of Chair Caning Slideshow. Visitors are welcome to bring photos of their chairs to get advice on weaving projects. You can help Silver River Center for Chair Caning rebuild via this link: donate here.
