It all started with a simple idea to create a venue that we ran as artists in order to offer their customers and other artists the personalized service not found at most shows. We began displaying out of our homes, but as the idea took off with more artists wanting to be involved and attendance growing, it was time for a larger space.

So, 10 years ago mixed media artist and soap-maker Siouxsan E. Miller and painter Leslie Rae Jones came together and co-founded this unique show at the Pleasant Ridge Community Center. We retained the atmosphere and essence of a home show, since that was the reputation we had created, but now are more accessible to the public.

We drew from the pool of artists we knew who shared their passion, style, and attention to detail to join them in selling their work. We showcase many different mediums and styles to bring together a well balanced group. It is an event that people anticipate to find unique gifts for the holidays and themselves.

Please note this is a privately run event with all volunteer staff.
