Looking to start your holiday shopping before the Thanksgiving rush?
If so, the Martin House Restoration Corporation is taking its Traveling Wisteria Shop downtown today and tomorrow (November 15 & 16). Unique, Frank Lloyd Wright-inspired gifts will be available in the Atrium of the Key Towers @ 50 Fountain Plaza from 10 a.m. - 3 p.m.
Among the great collection in this "traveling museum shop" will be hand-crafted glass-bead jewelry inspired by the Martin House art-glass windows, Frank Lloyd Wright-patterned ties and scarves, Wright-design candlesticks, ornaments and note cards, a cozy throw rug with the cool Martin House Tree of Life window pattern, the Martin House dinnerware collection originally created in 2001 by Buffalo China, and much more.
You can also to buy a special new blend by Spot Coffee that honors Darwin D. Martin, chief executive of the famed Buffalo-based Larkin Soap Company.
Proceeds from sales at the museum shop go directly toward restoration of the Martin House complex, so you can shop and contribute to a great cause at the same time.
