World Craft Fair

For the second year, CO Exhibitions is hosting its World Craft Fair. The one-day holiday shopping event is geared toward gifts for the local art lover, including poster prints by CO co-owners Burlesque of North America (not to mention their delicious homemade beef jerky, Cool Jerk) and Landland, screen-printed textiles by Rectangle Design, fashions from Carly Schoen, jewelry by Lela Horst Baumann and merch and albums from Modern Radio Records. Adding to the ambience will be DJ sets from BRLSQ, art from 123Klan and a hot cocoa bar.

Nelle & Ogge launches

Last month, Laura Nelli of popular local clutch and accessories line Nelle opened her first showroom at L'Atelier Couture bridal boutique. Then last weekend, the busy designer announced yet another project -- Nelle & Ogge, a collaboration with Luci Kandler of Calpurnia Peach fame. The limited-edition holiday line inspired by Frida Kahlo features Kandler's screen prints on silk, holiday skirts and clutches.

As an eviction crisis has seemed increasingly likely this summer, everyone in the housing market has made the same plea to Washington: Send money — lots of it — that would keep renters in their homes and landlords afloat.
