Hello Shared Ground Community,
Hoping you all are staying warm and cozy in this burst of winter weather! We’re just dropping in to share an awesome opportunity to radicalize your holiday shopping this season…
We’ve collaborated with the Potted Peace Project to host the Black Friday Black Market, a small-local business/art market of over 20 Black vendors offering a wide array of goodies and services to shop from. Come shop and enjoy live music, food, and mingling in our cozy spaces while also supporting our beloved Black community members!
Shopping options will include: Thrifted books, y2k curated clothing, flash tattoos, stitched crafts, epoxy arts, natural soaps, handmade body care products, jewelry, thrifted and crafted clothing, music, tarot, crystals, plant spirits, readings, candles, adornments, comic books, charms, pipes, waistbeads... and more!
The event will take place at Shared Ground (3401 W 29th ave, Denver CO 80211) on Friday November 25th between 10am and 4pm. Come on by!
More about the Potted Peace Project
This local project is run by two women of color whose goal is to promote racial healing via plant love. By gifting houseplants, hosting earth centered events, and facilitating reconnection with nature through free gardening classes and supplies, the Potted Peace Project hopes to be a means of emotional support for our communities.
Check them out on instagram: @pottedpeaceproject and facebook to support, learn more, and stay in touch.
Email kenya.permatierra@gmail.com to donate your unwanted houseplants, pots, soil, propagations, gardening tools or seeds to the Potted Peace Project.
