It’s time to think about shopping!

And in this turbulent year especially, there is no better time to “shop indie”.

With that in mind, here’s what Jackalope Arts is planning, for Christmas season 2020.

From Small Business Saturday, this Saturday, November 28th, right up through Friday, December 18th, Jackalope Arts hosts their “Virtual Holiday Market”!  And here’s the link where you can shop.

You’ll recall, from a previous post, that Jackalope’s juried artisans always come up with something special.

I’ve met a fine woodworker whose clocks are absolutely gorgeous.  In addition, there was a string artist who adds a fresh perspective on a vintage craft, a hula-hoop crafter who puts a lot of imagination and joy.into her work (and teaches classes!) and a handcrafted-foods artisan who whips up small batches of family and heirloom recipes, to which “Yummmmm!” would barely do justice.  And those were just four of many!

Jackalope Arts’ Virtual Holiday Market will feature more than 100 hand-selected artisans, crafters and DIY enthusiasts, according to their websites.

And just like their onsite events, the Virtual Holiday Market will give you a chance to meet the talented creators.   Jackalope is having three Instagram Live sessions: Saturday, November 28th at 11 am PST; then on Sunday, December 6th at 11 am PST; and finally, on Sunday, December 13th, at 11 am PST!  Here’s where to follow them on Instagram.

Jackalope Arts’ “Virtual Holiday Market” runs from Small Business Saturday, November 28th, through Friday, December 18th at this link.
