December 1st is Jumble Donation Drop-Off Day




The Yellow Springs Arts Council is holding its first Holiday Art Jumble fundraiser to support local artists and the YSAC Community Gallery.

“Jumble Sale Donation Drop-Off Day” is Saturday, December 1 (1-4pm) – bring your gently-used “arty” items to the YSAC Gallery and join the YSAC Team in celebrating the season with festive cookies, hot cider and holiday cheer!  Our featured artist, Sondy Kai, will help you to create a colorful ornament with ‘upcycled’ plastic to decorate downtown YS.

We invite you to donate anything fascinating, lovable, crafty or vintage that you are ready to pass on or no longer have a place for.  We would love your Out-of-the-Closet Art, Grandma’s Arty Knickknacks, Hand-Crafted Whimsy and Under-the-Bed Collectibles.  If you have an item that screams “ART!!!” and is being neglected & collecting dust, donate it to the Art Jumble!

If you cannot make it on December 1, drop off your “art treasure” donations from Wednesday to Sunday (1-4pm) through January 18 at the YSAC Gallery at 111 Corry Street.  Or, if these times do not work for you, call Nancy Mellon at 937-767-1366 to work out another time.

The Holiday Art Jumble Sale & Exhibit opens on December 15 (1-4pm) and continues through January 20 (Wednesday to Sunday, 1-4pm).  You will find unique gifts at “can’t-resist” prices and you will be supporting the arts in Yellow Springs.
