Each year, you are faced with the challenges of what to give someone for Christmas, and if you are like me, one thing you worry about is giving something mass-produced and available by the crateful. .
An easy solution to this gift-giving phobia is
The Recycled Art Market that pops up each November kicking off our region’s holiday markets.
Unlike the mall, The Recycled Art Market welcomes more than 60 artisans to bring their works that must follow a strict entry guide with an emphasis on the repurposing, up-cycling, or recycling of the materials used in their production. This year, there are also a group of 15+ artisans whose work falls exclusively in the realm of handmade.
This is a truly inspiring event where I always walk away with a few gifts that are sure to be appreciated due to the craft and care in their production.
Cost is $2 to attend, which includes helpers who’ll assist you in carrying those gifts to your vehicle.
