Norton Factory Studios Winter Open Studios and Holiday Arts and Crafts Fair

Shop local this holiday season!  The Jingletown Arts District is having an Art Walk the weekend of December 7 and 8 (11AM to 6PM each day), and Norton Factory Studios is participating with Open Studios and a curated arts and crafts fair.  The family-friendly event features local artisans and resident artists who will show and sell their wares to the public.  

Oakland’s Jingletown Arts District lies between the boundaries of 23rd Ave to Fruitvale Ave, and 12th St to the Oakland/Alameda Estuary -- just over the bridge from Alameda.

The event combines an open studios tour with an arts and craft fair. Norton Factory Studios' resident artists will open their studios to the public and a curated group of over 20 local artisans will show and sell their wares in our exhibition space and classroom. With food trucks nearby and plenty of other neighborhood studios and galleries open, this is a great place to see wonderful art and creative environments while taking care of some holiday gift shopping.  To learn more about Norton Factory Studios and the participating artists and artisans, please see http://nortonfactorystudios.com/
