ArtsTech – A Center for Youth Enterprise presents the Original Art Flea Market in the Crossroads Art District from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturdays from Nov. 1to Dec. 20. Located just blocks from the Power and Light District and Sprint Center at 1522 Holmes, the Original Art Flea is a new venue for buying local art priced from $1 to $50 just in time for the holidays.
We call it the Art Flea because everything for sale will be sold at flea-market prices. Some premium items will also be available. Local artists will sport their wares in a fun festival-like environment. Snacks and beverages will be available. Find all your holiday gifts and something for yourself!
Additionally, a $1 suggested donation at the door buys a raffle ticket to win big prizes. Join us each week to find new and incredible deals on emerging designers’ collection, jewelry, fine art, handmade books and cards, accessories, kitsch, crafts, vintage finds and more. Find us on the Web atwww.originalartfleakc.com
All donations at the door support the educational programs of ArtsTech (www.artstech-kc.org) and Storytellers, Inc. (www.storytellersinc.org). Support for the Original Art Flea is provided in part by the ArtsKC Fund and the Kansas Arts Commission.
