LIBANA and THIRD LIFE STUDIO present ~ 2012 Second Annual
INTERNATIONAL ARTISANS FAIR TRADE HOLIDAY MARKETPLACE!
Saturday, December 1, 10am to 6pm
Sunday, December 2, Noon to 5pm
Hello Studio friends!
In addition to directing the activities at Third Life Studio, I am the founder and artistic
director of Libana, an internationally renowned women's world music ensemble.
Last year, after returning from our incredible tour to North India, we produced a Fair Trade
Holiday Marketplace that showcased some of the amazingly beautiful artistic creations
of women we had met on our journey in Rajasthan (at Barefoot College) and in Gujarat
(members of the artisan collectives of SEWA).
WE HAD SO MUCH FUN!
It also felt so right to do on so many levels that we decided we simply had to do it again!
This year we have expanded and are including even more international fair trade women's
artisan organizations--we are so excited about all the beauty that women create worldwide!
By shopping for your friends and family at our Holiday Marketplace, your gifts will make a
profound difference in the quality of life for women and their families around the world.
So bring your friends and neighbors and come explore the traditional and contemporary
crafts of the world's women this year--we hope to see you there!
(And please forward this to all of your friends!!!)
Come support Libana AND women artisans of India (Rajasthan, Gujarat),
Kashmir, Ghana, Rwanda, El Salvador and Guatemala!
* A festive array of global Fair Trade Arts and Crafts from India, Africa, and Latin America.
Holiday shopping that makes a real difference in women's lives worldwide!
