More than 35 talented international and national artists will be selling handmade art and products at the third annual Holiday Art Fair hosted by the Nosara Artisans from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. at Pacifico Azul Restaurant in Playa Guiones.

Artists make everything by hand, such as handmade bikinis and beachwear, unique pottery, glass art, fabric art, jewelry, painting, photography, carved wood art, furniture and lamps. Much of the artwork comes from natural materials found in Nosara and its beaches.

Local Nosara community organizations will be at the art fair to educate and fundraise for their important causes, and kids can have their faces painted while benefiting a Nosara summer children’s art camp.

Nosara Artisans was founded in October 2012 to give local artists a place to sell their wares during the holiday and summer season. It is a non-profit collective open to everyone living in the community. More Nosara Artisan art fairs will be held during the Costa Rica summer season at the same place and time on January 18, February 8, March 15, and April 4.
