CEDAR KEYHOLE ARTIST CO-OP Y’ART SALE ends September 9. If you haven’t had a chance to stop by the CKAC and enjoy browsing through the Keyhole’s summer sale, time is just about up. All remaining items were marked down 50% yesterday, August 31; so, don’t miss this opportunity to find a great deal and support the Keyhole artists at the same time.
