What to Snag at The Avant-Garde Art & Craft Show

The holiday season is, thankfully, still a ways off. That doesn't mean you should wait to start your shopping. The Avant-Garde Art & Craft Show-an indie arts event hosted at St. Agatha's Parish Hall (1860 Northam Road, Upper Arlington) on Sept. 26 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.-is a best bet for whimsical hostess gifts, fun stocking stuffers and more. Admission is $3 (kids younger than 12 are admitted for free) and a portion of the ticket proceeds benefit Y.E.S. Columbus, a volunteer branch of Dress for Success. Get your list, check it twice and check out a few of our favorites.
