Sustainable Holiday Makers' Market
From fast fashion and excessive packaging creating waste, to the fuel consumption of delivery trucks from online retailers and even driving from boutique store to boutique store, the holidays cause a spike in negative environmental impacts. We would like to offer our guests an opportunity to reduce these impacts.
We're inviting local makers whose products are made from natural, recycled and/or up-cycled materials to showcase and sell their merchandise to help all our guests find some sustainable ways to fulfill their holiday needs.
Vendors for 2025 include:
Restless Creatures - Featuring hand-tooled ornaments, hangable wall art, and garlands made of recycled and reclaimed materials
The Mulberry Rabbit - Featuring handmade needle felted wool ornaments, pins, snowmen, and gift items
Sturge Stitch - Featuring beanies, scarves, bandanas, and other winter items
Crystal Elise Art - Featuring art pieces made of reused mixed media (collages, paintings, zines, prints)
Flip City / TT's Funhouse - Featuring acrylic paintings of Chicago, upcycled pottery, upcycled embellished jars, frames, and found objects
Story Lago - Featuring upcycled miniatures, fairy houses, and displays
