Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!

We are so thankful for everyone that came down to support our vendors this last weekend at Wintry Market! It was a fantastic time, filled with new and old friends, local art and of course amazing goodies from Big City Coffee and B29 Streatery.

If you weren't able to make it, truth be known, you missed a good time. But not to worry! There is still our friend's {procrastinator's} holiday market to attend and buy up local goods for everyone you love.

Visit Us!

The time has come! We are so looking forward to seeing you all there this Saturday and Sunday. 

If you need directions, or want to know where to park, check here.

Cheers!

Can't wait to see you at the market!!

12 Days // Two Bird Studio

Wintry Market has had so much fun showcasing our favorite things about the Holiday season for the last 12 days. To round out the 12 Days of Wintry, we are pleased to announce that the sponsor of our photo booth, Two Bird Studio will be donating 100% of the profits from the photo booth back to Ballet Idaho, specifically the By Special Invitation program. Yes, 100% profits. How awesome is that?!

Wanna help out? Here's how:

The photo booth will be filled with winter themed props and for only $2 a photo, Two Bird Studio will capture a fun moment with you and whoever you bring to enjoy Wintry Market goodness. Need a Christmas card photo for this year? What about that family portrait you keep forgetting to schedule? Make a note to come down to Wintry Market not only to get a high quality portrait done by a professional photographer, but also help out an amazing cause with Ballet Idaho.

According the the Ballet Idaho website:

Our By Special Invitation program provides an opportunity for individuals represented by local organizations from a wide array of socio/economic/ethnic backgrounds to attend a full production of Ballet Idaho’s mainstage performances free of charge.

Sponsored blocks of tickets are distributed to partner social service organizations and individuals who would not otherwise have the means or the opportunity to attend a live performance. Approximately 2,800 children, veterans, refugees and their families will benefit from the program. By Special Invitation furthers a significant part of Ballet Idaho’s core mission; to bring diverse groups of people together for a common experience and communicate through fine music, choreography, performance, scenic design and costumes, a deeper understanding of the way in which classic ballet relates to the other arts and the values of Western culture.

Doesn't that look like fun? Come on down to Wintry Market to help out an amazing artistic outlet in our community, as well as get that Christmas card photo out of the way! We look forward to seeing you this weekend, November 5th and 6th at the Ballet Idaho Auditorium.
