The Art of Love and Shopping

Higher Art Gallery's Love Language Feb. 5
By Lynda Wheatley | Jan. 29, 2022

We are swooning for Higher Art Gallery’s upcoming Love Language exhibit: a group show of more than 20 extraordinary artists alongside an artisan market of goodies you’re guaranteed to go ga-ga over. Think: jewelry from Fina Moon Silver Studio and KKB Designs, organic bath and body products from Happy Homestead Farm, candles from In the Stars, hair tinsel from Fairy Hair Extraordinaire, and much more. Shop art or crafts for your valentine if you must, but honestly, who needs a valentine with this much to love? Go treat yourself to whatever makes your own heart beat faster. The online collector preview starts at noon Feb. 4; the official show opening and pop-up market runs 11am to 5pm Feb 5 at Higher Art Gallery in downtown Traverse City.
