The Women in the Arts Festival Artist Market features women-made creations, including paintings, illustrations, photography, jewelry, textiles, sculpture, pottery, glassware, edible treats, books, and music. The Festival aims to create a space for women to showcase their talents and sell their work.

Just in time for Holiday shopping, think about giving one-of-a-kind gifts found in our Artist Market at Edgewood Church in East Lansing.
