Get your shop on

There are eight shopping days left, people. This is no time to rest on your laurels. Luckily, the opportunities to score cool, unique, local gifts are abundant this weekend.

• Robin Plemmons holds a trunk show featuring “booze! Whore d’oeuvres! …Christmas gifts that will make you pee!” at L.O.F.T. (53 Broadway St.). 5-10 p.m.

• The Jolly Jaunt takes place on Lexington Ave. on Saturday, 7-10 p.m. Participating stores (HoneyPot, Nest Organics, Virtue, Cornerstone Minerals, Write-On, Hip Replacements, The Costume Shoppe, Izzy’s Coffee Den and Mountain Lights) will be open late with cider, cookies, family fun and sales.

• Magic: A Scrollwork Designs Trunk Show takes place at Mountain Java Westridge (901 Smokey Park Hwy.) on Sunday, Dec. 19, 3-6 p.m. It’s “a celebration of all things silver and shiny [above] featuring handcrafted art jewelry by local artisan and silversmith Clarity Collins.”

Thanks for reading through to the end…

We share your inclination to get the whole story. For the past 25 years, Xpress has been committed to in-depth, balanced reporting about the greater Asheville area. We want everyone to have access to our stories. That’s a big part of why we’ve never charged for the paper or put up a paywall.

We’re pretty sure that you know journalism faces big challenges these days. Advertising no longer pays the whole cost. Media outlets around the country are asking their readers to chip in. Xpress needs help, too. We hope you’ll consider signing up to be a member of Xpress. For as little as $5 a month — the cost of a craft beer or kombucha — you can help keep local journalism strong. It only takes a moment.
