Artwork Dresses Up Empty Storefronts
 
We're bringing life to empty storefronts! In a new effort, we're coordinating a project that puts the work of local artists into downtown's empty windows. This serves several ideas. It showcases the talents of our local artists and gives them space which they may not otherwise have. It also brings life, color, and pizazz to those empty spaces and attracts passersby, which may attract potential new tenants!
 
 

 

Advanced photography students from the Department of Art & Design welcome you to attend an opening reception titled 'Redirection' of their final projects!

 

Each student will talk briefly about their projects on display and welcome discussion from the audience.

Final Design Committee Meeting
  

Don't forget the Downtown Design Committee meeting scheduled for Thursday, December 6th at 9am.  The meeting will be held in the Public Works Conference Room at City Hall and it is anticipated that this will be the final gathering before all downtown businesses are invited to view the plan!

Winter Farmers Market
  

On Saturday, December 8th, the Eau Claire Downtown Farmers Market will open at 9:00am at the L.E. Phillips Senior Center, 1616 Bellinger St, Eau Claire, Wi.

 

Until 1:00 pm this holiday market will be filled with  local producers of: honey, maple syrup, meats, fish, cheeses, baked goods, salsas, fresh vegetables, pet treats, hand-made candies, canned goods, berry sauces, popcorn and goat-milk soaps.

 

A complimentary hospitality table, sponsored by the vendors, will be laden with holiday treats. Shopping will be accompanied by holiday music.

 

A registration card will be available at the door for the gift basket that will be filled with 100% locally produced items. This card, when signed by all of the vendors, qualifies customers to participate in the gift basket drawing. Customers need not be present to win at the 1:00 pm drawing.

 

The Winter Farmers Market is held the second Saturday of each month, November through April, at the L.E. Phillips Senior Center.
