The LUX Gifted shop has something for everyone on your list – functional and sculptural ceramics, holiday ornaments, textiles, jewelry, paintings, prints and more.

    This gift guide intends to make gifting even easier – with careful considerations of the special people you are gifting for, including a variety of price points and unique objects to inspire. We know this holiday season will look a little bit different, so we want to make the gifting experience as fun and accommodating as we can – check out the various ways you can get your shopping done at the LUX:

    Nostalgic ReverieLUX Print Collection | Sept 10-Jan 5

    Do you remember the farmstead where you grew up? Birthday parties with ele-mentary school friends? Visits with your grandma and grandpa? Your favorite swing or toy? Or your first love?

    “Nostalgic Reverie” draws on all those memories and more to let you travel in time and contemplate your youth and the wistful feelings when you think about your past. Some prints are senti-mental while others are poignant, yet all are evocative visits to past experi-ences. “Nostalgic Reverie” curated by Susan Soriente features 18 prints from the LUX Print Collection and may be seen now through January 5, 2020.
