An advantage of buying local is you walk out of the store with the item in hand. But that’s not always possible when buying art from a gallery (although red dots/sold are wonderful to see). PYRO Gallery has solved that problem with its annual holiday show: You like it, you buy it, you take it off the wall and it goes home with you. Paintings, sculpture, photography, mixed media and fiber by all of the PYRO artists will be available. The opening reception is Friday, Dec. 6 from 6 to 9 p.m.
