Eastern Shore Artisans Tour

Every year, on Thanksgiving weekend, the Artisans Guild – Eastern Shore of Virginia showcases our member artisans and their unique crafts and talent in a self-drive show & sale event. This Holiday Open Studio Tour has been held since 2002 and is the flagship event for the Guild. The tour takes you off the beaten path and leads you via scenic routes to the home studios, a vineyard and historic locations between the Chesapeake Bay and the Atlantic Ocean. The tour has become a real holiday tradition on the Eastern Shore peninsula, providing a fun opportunity to appreciate our local culture and share it with friends or visiting family members. Almost 50 Guild artisans are showing and selling their handmade creations at 18 different stops and can explain their inspiration and techniques with visitors. It is a wonderful way for many folks to get to know the beautiful Eastern Shore countryside, kick off the Holiday Season with some unique holiday shopping and support our local artisan community.

Small Business Saturday

The U.S. Chamber of Commerce created a day where shoppers are encouraged to go to small businesses to do their Christmas Shopping.  Saturday is Small Business Saturday.  Shoppers are encouraged to spend as much of their Christmas Shopping budget at small businesses.  Here on the Easern Shore there are dozens of locally owned small businesses that range from local artists to old fashioned variety stores all eager to help you find that perfect gift. Doing Chrismas Shopping here on the Eastern Shore helps your neighbors by supporting our local merchants, but also generates local tax revenue as well.  Small businesses are an important source of local jobs as well.
