GREEN SUNDAY HOLIDAY FAIR

Skip the malls this year! Wouldn't you rather shop in
a cozy atmosphere with sweet treats, warm drinks, and good friends? Make it a
"Media Local" holiday with beautiful hand-made gift items made in and
around Media!



Transition Town Media is hosting our 2nd Annual Green
Sunday Holiday Fair as an alternative to Black Friday and Cyber Monday. On
Green Sunday, we encourage our community members to shop for holiday gifts from
local crafters, artists, and upcyclers. This year will feature a combination of
home-made items such as soap, honey, salves, and wool, as well as hand-crafted
items such as jewelry, recycled paper books, textiles, and a new category of
“upcycled” items, such as discarded wine bottles that are heated and shaped
into serving dishes. Green Sunday will also include gift baskets you can buy,
make yourself, or win in a raffle! Come out to the Media Community Center, 4th
& Jackson St, Media on Sunday December 8th, 1-4pm to fulfill your shopping
wish list for family and friends. 



Green Sunday aims to promote local vendors and local
artists and to engage our community in more ecological alternatives for holiday
shopping. We will have baskets for free and for sale, as well as packing
materials and wrap so that those attending the fair can literally go from booth
to booth purchasing items and putting together their own "Media
Local" gift baskets, just like the ones we will be raffling off.  Don’t forget to get your raffle tickets – the
prizes make a wonderful holiday gift!  We
will also have several drop-in, make-your-own craft stations for the kids, and
a swap table for holiday decor and wrapping materials.
