Love Local Holiday Market, Friday, November 23^rd and Saturday the 24^th. 10-6PM. Warwick Valley Community Center, 11 Hamilton Avenue, Warwick, NY.

Just in time for the holidays, the Love Local Holiday Market, is setting up shop on Friday 23^rd and Saturday, the 24th of November, at the Warwick Valley Community Center. Starting in 2016, Wickham Works set out to showcase the work of local artisans hand making quality products. The market has now outgrown its original venue at Wickham Woodlands Manor. Visitors can meet, learn about their work and buy unique gifts from more than forty crafts people. These include Grassroots Leather artisan Derek Shortway who brings his finely hand crafted leather bags, wallets and accessories to the market. The folks at Rosner Soaps are happy to tell you about the organic ingredients in their line of body care products. This year Whenhouse glass has added stemware to their line of hand blown glass jewelry and ornaments. L.C. Studios fun line of paper resin jewelry is fresh from its showcase at New York Fashion week. The innovative jams from Woodside Blue Preserves are made from local fruit, here in Warwick. The full line up of vendors can be found at FB: Love Local Holiday Market.

On Friday there will be blacksmithing and wood carving demonstrations. On Saturday, John Cox from Quercus Cooperage will be on hand to talk about the ancient craft of barrel making. The market also features live music from area musicians, a children’s face painting and craft area with make-&-take ornaments, delicious baked goods for sale, and a 50/50 raffle.

Hours are from 10AM to 6PM on Friday and Saturday. There is a suggested $3 donation per adult at the door, with proceeds going to support youth programming at the community center.
