A Non-Profit Art Gallery in New Rochelle Is Holding A December Holiday Arts & Crafts Market Featuring One-of-a-kind Creations Far Below Wholesale Prices.

BID Gallery 542, an art gallery created by the City of New Rochelle Downtown Improvement District, a not-for-profit organization, is holding their first Annual Holiday Gift Market on weekends this December, 2009.

    NEW YORK, NY December 12, 2009 /Art and Artists PR News/ -- On Saturdays and Sundays December 12th, 13th, 19th & 20th New Rochelle New York's BID Gallery 542 is holding that city's 'First Annual Holiday Arts & Crafts Market' at the gallery located at 542 Main Street, from 11 in the morning until 5 in the evening. The show and sale includes the work of some twenty artists and craftspeople from lower Westchester, who are all exhibiting their original hand-crafted work free of charge, with no commissions payable to the gallery. Admission for both the public and trade buyers is also free.

More than a thousand items, all one-of-a-kind original artistic creations, are being offered to the public as economical alternatives for gift giving as compared with the 'same old stuff' available at local malls. The show features a diverse array of artistic merchandise, including original watercolors, hand-crafted art prints, ceramics, woodcraft items, jewelry and much more. Significant discounts below retail prices on everything offered for sale are available, and no items are priced at more than $100.

The BID has also developed a 'Downtown Artists Spaces Program' that is bringing together property owners with long-term vacant upper floor space and artists and arts businesses seeking to lease affordable studios.

For more information on the market, the gallery or the BID's programs in the arts, visit the BID web site or phone Ivar Hyden, Director of the gallery at 914-636-1166
