Dallas– The 2014 Winter Art Mart is a great place for the public to get an early start on their holidays shopping while supporting local artists and the programs at the Bath House Cultural Center. More than fifty visual artists fill up the galleries, lobby, theater, and even the building’s front porch with a wonderful variety of paintings, photographs, pottery, sculpture, fiber arts, ceramics, jewelry and other one-of-a-kind wares. Proceeds of the Bath House Art Mart and silent auction benefit the Friends of the Bath House, which supports year-round visual and performing arts programs at the center. Purchases benefit everyone: patrons will take home one-of-a-kind artwork, while local artists and art lovers will be able to continue enjoying the arts at the neighborhood cultural center on White Rock Lake.
