Shop with a purpose this holiday season at HomeFront’s Holiday Market 2024, an arts and crafts event with proceeds going to support local families in need.
The theme for this year’s festive Holiday Market is “Homemade for the Holidays” and is set to feature more than 40 area artisans and vendors. Shoppers will have the opportunity to buy one-of-kind gifts, clothing, visual art, fine crafts, handsewn items, as well as home and holiday decor.
The Holiday Market is scheduled to take place at HomeFront’s Lawrenceville Campus, located at 1880 Princeton Ave., Lawrence, on Saturday, Nov. 23 and Sunday, Nov. 24 from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. each day.
HomeFront’s mission to end homelessness in Central New Jersey is accomplished through the agency’s comprehensive slate of supportive programs. The Holiday Market is hosted by the agency’s healing art programs, ArtSpace and SewingSpace, which stress the life-affirming powers of creativity. Several of the vendors at the Holiday Market will be prior clients and volunteers of these programs.
“Not only is this a fun event, HomeFront’s Holiday Market delivers significant impacts across many areas. We are supporting struggling families, while encouraging the HomeFront artists and artisans, boosting their feelings of self-worth. Shoppers are giving back to their community in a valuable way,” said Ruthann Traylor, director of ArtSpace and SewingSpace.
