HOLIDAY POP UP

Holiday Lane returns to the Northrup King Building and our studio will be open for business! Cozy up with a hot chocolate or seasonal treat as you wander the halls, exploring hundreds of one-of-a-kind gifts and artwork from talented local artists and creators.

Holiday Lane happens on Saturdays from 10am-4pm between Nov 29th - Dec 20th.

We invite anyone who has been impacted by alcoholism within their families or by their loved ones to join us in the creation of a new work titled “Hospital Gowns”. 

During open studio we will teach folks how to do brick stitch to create pieces that will be attached together like a quilt in the shape of the gown.

These will be exhibited at the Museum of Contemporary Native Arts in 2025 and any sales of work will have a portion donated to Southside Harm Reduction.

This is a healing time to be creative and experience joy in community. We understand that conversations will happen naturally but want to acknowledge that we will not be facilitating any structured discussions. Everyone will have their own experiences relating to this topic and may want to share or not as it is a sensitive subject. With that said, our role in this is to strictly provide a creative environment that honors those that we love. 

Materials will be provided but please feel free to bring snacks to share.
