For the Art Lover

By: Visit the County Updated: October 27, 2025

If you’re shopping for someone who swoons over pottery, paintings, or perfectly crafted pieces (or maybe that person is you) The County is full of creative finds that make gift-giving easy (and extra meaningful). This season, support local artists and makers who turn their love of art into something special for your home, your hands, or your heart.

ANDARA Gallery


Step inside ANDARA Gallery and you’ll feel the warmth of creativity (and maybe the scent of something sweet in the air). This award-winning gallery just outside Bloomfield is a holiday destination all its own, featuring paintings, photography, and fine art ceramics by artists Andrew Csafordi and Tara Wilkinson.

From vibrant encaustic paintings made with melted beeswax and oil pigments, to Tara’s luminous photography and digital art exploring joy, nature, and spirituality; there’s something here for every art lover.

South Shore Joint Initiative


Give a gift that gives back to the land, the wildlife, and the people who love The County’s South Shore. South Shore Joint Initiative (SSJI) is a local charity dedicated to protecting and restoring the South Shore’s biodiversity and heritage.

This year, their online shop is full of thoughtful, art-inspired gifts that support conservation. Every purchase supports SSJI’s mission to protect and celebrate one of The County’s most beautiful natural landscapes.

Find them at the Busy Hands Dec 13-14

Jonathan Kaiser Studio


For those who appreciate craftsmanship and character, Jonathan Kaiser’s studio in Picton is a treasure trove. Jonathan creates hand-carved wooden stools, elegant wool birds, and living bonsai forests with each piece blending natural materials with years of skill and care.

Every creation is one-of-a-kind, making it a perfect heirloom or heartfelt holiday gift.
 

Little Feather Studio

Each piece from Little Feather Studio tells a story that is rooted in artist Lia Lyons-Grosso’s exploration of their Odawa and settler heritage. Her pottery connects to earth, sky, water, and nature, blending traditional inspiration with a modern, earthy style. Every piece is functional, completely non-staining, and safe for the microwave and dishwasher which makes them as practical as they are beautiful.

Looking to get creative yourself? Lia offers small group beginner pottery classes (max six people) over two evenings - a perfect gift experience for friends or couples. Their work can also be found at Native Renaissance II in Tyendinaga Mohawk Territory.

Find them at the Holly Jolly Holiday Market Nov 21-23
