817 Arts Alliance seeks to empower local artisans by providing them with a venue to bring their creations to market with its Happy Holidays Pop-Up Market. You will find many one or few of a kind works of art, fine craft and other hand crafted goodies. Come early to grab that special find before it is gone and come back later to see what new works have been added by the same or new artisans.

In addition to being local, all artisans in this year's pop-up market either have Etsy shops or are UTA graduate art students. You will find a list below of the artisans expected to stock their wares in the Happy Holidays Pop-Up Market. Clicking an image below will take you to that artisan's Etsy shop or other online presence so you can learn more about each member and their work. The artisans may have more or fewer selections than what you see featured in their link but they are representative of the types of products each artisan enjoys creating and sharing.
Artisans' bios will be posted on a wall at the Happy Holidays Pop-Up Market. Learn more about what inspirations and influences the artisans have experienced along their paths.
Let us know you are interested or planning on coming and share the Happy Holidays Facebook event with your friends.
Happy Holidays Pop-Up Market is sponsored in part by Downtown Arlington Management Corporation.
