Why Local?

 
​​
Community Social Shopping

What is the "Why Local" Campaign?

The main goal of the "Why Local" campaign is to consistently highlight the unique works of local artisans, visual and performing artists and in doing so promote local shopping which will in turn stimulate the local economy while building a sense of community. 
​

How can you help?

You can help the campaign by supporting local artisans, visual and performing artist and other small business like those who vend at FAsMarketplace.  By spending your dollars at these businesses, you will be doing so much for your community! Check out our list of vendors and list of events and start shopping local!
