Handmade NW Formal Holiday Artisans Fair 2011
Sunday, December 18th, 2011 |  11am – 5pm
More info: www.handmadenw.com

The Acadian Ballroom
1829 Northeast Alberta Street
Portland, OR 97211

An elegant Portland holiday shopping experience with local handcrafted wares in a stunning 1920′s historic ballroom! Over 60 local artisans! Live classical music, gift wrapping table and more!

Handmade NW aims to support an economy of crafters and artisans who have committed to bringing quality handmade goods to our community. We believe that the recipient of a handmade gift receives something that is one-of-a-kind, and made with care and attention that can be seen and touched—quality that is the result of skill and craftsmanship unachievable through large-scale manufacturing. Handmade NW encourages all to support the local economy, and buy local handmade gifts this holiday.

Each year Handmade NW selects a nonprofit partner for our holiday show. This year we are pleased to announce that we are partnering with REACH Community Development. Since 1982, REACH has pioneered affordable housing and supportive programs that address complex challenges facing communities.
