A much-beloved Austin holiday shopping tradition is back and will be open daily for in-person shopping from November 19 through December 24! The Blue Genie Art Bazaar features the work of more than 160 exhibitors.
Founded in 2001 by four artists at Blue Genie Art Industries, the Bazaar has grown from a small, eclectic East Austin pop-up store to an annual holiday shopping event featuring the work of hundreds of local artisans. The Bazaar provides shoppers with a curated selection of hand-crafted items, from jewelry, home decor, and clothing to fine art and truly one-of-a-kind gifts.
If you don’t want to leave the house to do your holiday shopping, they have an online shop that is open year-round. You can even get the personal shopping expertise of one of the “genies” on their website.
Admission and parking are free, and current masking requirements will be posted online and at the door. No reservations are required but the Bazaar will be operating at a reduced capacity to allow for social distancing.
When: November 19th–December 24th
Time: 10 a.m.–10 p.m. daily (they close at 6 p.m. on Christmas Eve!)
