The much-anticipated 8th Annual Artisan Faire, showcasing 27 local artists, will be held from 4 to 7 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 13 inside the Orinda Country Club, 315 Camino Sobrante, Orinda. Founded by Orinda artist Gail Solt, this free event includes a wide variety of distinctive artwork and crafts, including ceramics, paintings, fiber art, woodwork, clothing, photography and more. Popular Moraga artist Kay DeGroot will feature her Asian-inspired necklaces and earrings from one-of-a-kind pearls, beads and semi-precious stones, many procured from far-away places such as Thailand and Japan. Each of her pieces is tagged with a description of its composition, often with a fascinating tidbit about its origin. The event will feature complimentary wine tasting. You can also view DeGroot's, as well as other local artists' work most Wednesdays at the Moraga Art Gallery in Rheem.
