Local nonprofit supports artisans from around the world in December

(LAWRENCEBURG, Ind.) – You can support artisans from around the globe by visiting a local nonprofit in early December.

The Fair Trade Marketplace in Lawrenceburg showcases handmade products from artists in third-world countries

“Every purchase directly supports their ability to overcome poverty through earning a fair wage in exchange for their craft,” the nonprofit said. 

Fair Trade Marketplace is open for just three days, which are 3-8 p.m. on December 4 and December 5,  as well as 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Saturday, December 5. 

It is located at 101 Speedway Drive which is at the Dearborn County Fairgrounds in Lawrenceburg.
