ABOUT THE EVENT

This winter season, we'd love to visit with you over warm drinks and pastries, sustainable crafts and natural holiday decor, contemplative books and meaningful conversation. Please join us for Marigold's first ever Contemplative Bookstore & Winter Craft Market! In a season marked by busyness and consumption, slow down amidst used books and handmade projects, friendship, and simple, creative acts of love and generosity.

Read on below for more about the collaborators, activities, and more!
