The Artists Collective Spartanburg is excited to announce extended hours on most Thursdays for its annual Holiday Artisan Market exhibition, allowing visitors to shop and create until 8 pm. At 578 West Main Street in Spartanburg, the Artists Collective invites everyone to enjoy “Shop and Craft Thursdays,” where artists will offer free materials and guidance to make simple, holiday-themed crafts. Each Thursday will feature different projects, with this week’s crafts including a beeswax ornament and a paper snowflake. Light refreshments will be served, and children are welcome with a responsible adult.

The Holiday Artisan Market opens Tuesday, Nov. 5, and runs through Dec. 28, showcasing the works of 38 regional artists. Visitors will find unique, handcrafted items such as jewelry, pottery, woodwork, paintings, original cards, ornaments, photography, miniatures, fused glass, sculpture, and more. It’s a perfect opportunity to support local artists while discovering one-of-a-kind gifts for the holiday season.
