On Saturday, December 13th from 11am - 4pm the Artists' Studio in the Foothills (ASiF) invites the public to its 17th Annual Holiday Open & House Event. Guests will enjoy family friendly gift making workshops, demonstrations by resident artists and instructors, holiday refreshments, a live solo piano performance featuring Gregory S. Young playing Chopin, Satie and other classical works followed by a piano and string performance by The Sierra Chamber Players in the center's main gallery.

ASiF’s gallery walls will be adorned with ASiF's much loved annual Smallworks Holiday Show - featuring an ever changing exhibition of one of a kind, original artworks by more than forty local artists.

As tradition will have it, ASiF's Smallworks Holiday Show is an ever changing exhibit - with new artists joining weekly throughout the course of the show - which means there's always something new in the gallery for you to see! Many agree this is ASiF's finest show of the year offering holiday shoppers a unique one of a kind art gift shopping experience!
