Weekly Freebie: Practical Art's Five-Year Anniversary Party

It goes without saying that we have a soft spot for all things local -- local art, local food, local business. So when all three of those things come together at the low, low cost of free, well, we see it as reason to party.

Join Practical Art's Lisa Olson and Kara Roschi from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. Saturday, April 27, as they celebrate the store's five-year anniversary with food and drink from Short Leash Hot Dogs and Four Peaks Brewery, live music from Sarah Vanell, ongoing storefront mural painting from artist Kelly Driscoll, as well as store giveaways and an art raffle.

While you're there check Practical Art's new and current inventory of ceramics, fibers, mixed media and more from up to 108 different artists including Annette Weaver, Jordan Thomas, and Ray DelMuro.
