The 19th Annual Women and Fair Trade Festival by Austin Tan Cerca de la Frontera returns to First UU Saturday, November 18th and Sunday, November 19th from 10 a.m. – 5 p.m.
Nine artisan cooperatives from Mexico, Palestine, Guatemala, Ecuador, India and the U.S. including: Jolom Mayaetik, Palestine Online Store, Fuerza Unida, Colores del Pueblo, Marigold Gateway to India, UPAVIM, Warmipa Huasy, Las Rancheritas/Rug Hook Project and Cooperativa Posada will setup in Howson Hall and the Gallery. Artisan cooperatives represent an alternative to dominant forms of production and distribution that often exploit, rather than support, craftswomen. This year they’ll welcome.
