Share
Whether looking for holiday cards, stocking-stuffers, cute jewelry to wear to upcoming holiday parties, or that perfect piece of art to fill that empty space on the wall before company arrives, Foothills Art Center has it all.
This year, the organization is hosting its 49th annual Holiday Art Market in a new location — its Astor House campus at 1133 Arapahoe St.
This year’s market features more than 3,000 unique items by 90-plus Colorado artists, including many based in the Denver area.

Shoppers can browse a variety of jewelry, textiles, photographs, paintings and ceramics, as well as holiday cards, ornaments and other wintertime items. Paid FAC members get 10% off any purchase.
While the Astor House and market will be closed Dec. 24-25, last-minute shoppers can still stop by through Dec. 29. The market will be hosting a sale Dec. 26-29.
FAC representatives said the new location and space is working out well for the annual market. It previously hosted the annual event at its former headquarters at 809 15th St, which is now serves as the Creative Campus with classes and artist workspaces.
The Astor House campus is open from 10 a.m.-5 p.m. Monday through Saturday, and noon-5 p.m. on Sundays. Admission is free.
