Every gift under the tree,
made by a neighbor

The Winter Art Market is one of the Center’s most lively and talent-filled annual fundraisers. For three days in December the whole building fills with handmade goods – ceramics, fiber arts, painting, photography, jewelry, metalwork, woodwork and more – plus good food and a genuinely magical atmosphere.

Come find something for everyone on your list, and know the money stays right here in Sonoma: with the artist who made it, and with the Center that taught, fired and framed it.
