Alternative Holiday Shopping
Nov. 23rd, 2012 01:59 pmThere's a great event happening at my school next weekend and the weekend after! Come to the Cultural Survival Bazaar at Cambridge College near Central Square on Mass Ave in Cambridge. Ditch Black Friday and buy holiday gifts from the artists who actually made them, while supporting and learning about threatened cultures worldwide.
beowabbit and I are probably going next Sunday, so maybe we'll see you there, but go anytime that fits your schedule. In addition to the vendors there will be food and music. The bazaar is in the glass function room at the front of the building, so you'll see it from the street.

Date: 2012-11-23 11:29 pm (UTC)We have a Fair Trade Market here once a year thrown by one of the local churches.
This year one of the vendors was Rahab's Rope. A woman from Gainesville, FL started it and goes to India several times a year to pick up items made by women there. Beautiful things that can also be purchased off their website.
