SHOP SMALL THIS HOLIDAY SEASON

Now, more than ever, we need to support each other in community. One of the best, practical ways you can is by skipping the Black Friday Deals, and shopping locally on Small Business Saturday. Shopping at local small businesses not only infuses money back into the Michigan economy, it supports the importance of the arts in our community for generations to come. It also doesn’t hurt to have access to some of the most unique gifts you can find this holiday season! We invite you to shop Small Business Saturday here at The Jerico Faire on Saturday, November 30th in Kalamazoo, Michigan.
