The holidays are here which means finding the perfect gift. So we found several fun, unique alternatives to the typical big box store.

Our stops include the One of a Kind Show, which showcases over 600 artist from around North America; the Randolph Street Holiday Market for gifts with more of a vintage feel; and the Andersonville Galleria which houses 90 local artists and retail vendors.

Also highlighted is the Christkindlmarket at Daley Plaza. Celebrating its 20th anniversary, the market is a Chicago tradition with German roots dating back to 1545.
