Still looking to discover that special holiday gift for the loved ones on your list? You can browse the paintings, photography, handmade decorations and more of 20 local artists at Manhattan Mini Storage, at 260 Spring St., on Sat., Dec. 19, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.
The event will feature Monica Shane, Elizabeth Engelhardt, Beth Kanell, Ketih Major, Eugene Ortiz, Sarah Langsam, Steve Gould, Patricia Ayres, Cecilia Monteverde, Sharon Smith, Thelma Blitz and Rochelle Gore.
The idea came from Michelle Langsam, director of marketing for Edison Properties, who was inspired by her daughter, who is an artist.
“She’s always interested in trying to sell some commercial items at street fairs but can never afford the rental fee for the booth,” Langsam said. “We believe we have many artists storing in our 260 Spring St. location. Thinking that many of them are likely in a similar situation, we got the idea to offer them a venue to try to sell holiday gift items, free of charge.”
If the event is a success, she said, they hope to make it an annual event.
