Start your holiday shopping early at the Beaufort Art Association’s All Member Show
Linda Tully
Kick off the holiday season with Beaufort Art Association’s annual All Member Show. Start your shopping early or treat yourself to that special piece created by local artists from the Beaufort area. Join us on First Friday, November 6, for an opening reception celebrating “The Best of Beaufort Art.”
Our November/December exhibit highlights art from our general members, many of whom are professional artists who support BAA but are not regular exhibiting artists in the Gallery. In addition to established artists, our general members include emerging artists in a variety of mediums and styles.
BAA will also showcase new art from over 60 of our local exhibiting artists including 2-D paintings

and photography and 3-D works of jewelry, pottery, metal, sculpture, stained glass, and wood.
Over twenty years ago, BAA opened their first gallery on Port Republic Street, moving a few years later to the Elliott House on Bay Street. Today, BAA’s home is at 913 Bay Street in an expansive space that showcases some of the best art in the Lowcountry, with many types of art and artists represented and exhibits changing every two months. The non-profit organization strives to encourage, support, and provide opportunities for the artistic growth of its members.

Looking ahead to the weekend before Thanksgiving, November 19-21, BAA will participate in the Mistletoe Market at Tabby Place. Original small art will include holiday and non-holiday works—from cards to wine stoppers, ceramics to jewelry and more—all perfect for gift giving and decorating.
Don’t forget to mark your calendar for the upcoming open house and reception on First Friday, November 6 from 5-8:00 pm. Refreshments will be served and the community is invited. The exhibit begins on November 3 and runs through January 3.
