If you've had your fill of gift cards, electronics and kitchen gadgets, head to the alumni hall of York College's student union building between 10 a.m. and 6 p.m. Friday for a sale of global fair trade merchandise provided by Ten Thousand Villages.
Handcrafted items ranging from folk art to ceramics, textiles, baskets, jewelry and musical instruments will be on sale. In addition, sample cookies from around the world, provided by the chefs of Chartwells Dining Service, York College's food service provider.
I don't know about you, but I'm a sucker for this stuff. It's so unique and I know that every penny I spend is going to support artisans in other countries.
For details, call 815-1916.
