Artists and Art lovers gather for Banbury Fall Fest.

EAU CLAIRE, Wis. (WEAU) – Artists in the Chippewa Valley got a chance to introduce themselves to the Eau Claire community at Banbury Place on Saturday.

Guests got to indulge in a world of arts and crafts that filled the halls with artists and vendors around every corner. Everything from clay pots to goat milk soaps and 3-D printed figures were featured at the event.

Julie Pangallo, events and art support manager with Visit Eau Claire, said that events like this are incredibly important for supporting local artists and building a community.

“That’s what the whole show is about. Giving artists that opportunity “, Pangallo said.” Letting them spend their time doing what they do best, which is their art. If we can create an event and bring people in, they don’t have to expend that energy they can put that energy towards creating their art”.

The Banbury Place will host The Holiday Market on December 7th and all who are interested are encouraged to attend.
