Seeking exhibitors, artisans, & a DJ
|
 |
On Friday and Saturday, November 28 & 29, we’re hosting a Green Friday & Small Business Saturday party! Instead of fighting the crowds at the big box chains on Black Friday, folks can come here to celebrate community, make their own presents, and support local artisans. We are now accepting applications for exhibitors — come join us!
