It may be a little early for holiday shopping, but if you live in the Washington, D.C., area or if you'll be visiting in a few weeks, check out the Smithsonian Trunk Show.
The show, which takes place September 20-21, features jewelry and wearable art by 30 artists. Jewelry artists include Ayesha Mayadas, Holly Anne Mitchell, Carol Webb, Aaron Macsai, and Kiwon Wang. (See Aaron Macsai's Monet Pin, left).
Proceeds from the show benefit the Smithsonian Institution. For more information on the show, visit the Trunk Show's Web site: www.trunkshow.smithsonian.org.
