“Supporting small businesses is not just a choice; it’s a responsibility towards our community. When we buy from a local maker, we are bringing home a unique piece of art and also contributing towards the growth of our community. So let’s empower and uplift our local makers because every purchase we make has the power to create a lasting impact,” emphasizes Jacqueline Hunter, the show director of Craftadian. “Coming together to support local businesses has never been more crucial for our collective growth and progress.”
