Ten Thousand Villages is a nonprofit fair trade organization that markets handcrafted products made by artisans from more than 130 artisan groups in 38 countries. As one of the world's oldest and largest fair trade organizations, Ten Thousand Villages has spent more than 60 years cultivating long-term buying relationships in which artisans receive a fair price for their work and consumers have access to unique gifts, accessories and home decor from around the world.

You know that your purchase is keeping alive a traditional craft or supporting an innovative, sustainable technique. And you know that you also are making a tangible difference in the life of a person or a family somewhere on the globe

First Thursdays are held from 5-8pm during the evening on the first Thursday of each month, year-round.
