Many a strange phenomenon comes over us during this, the holiday season. People pretend they’re in ye olde Victorian England. Television commercials start to rhyme. We use terms like “hustle and bustle” in everyday conversation. But before you decide to curl up into a ball inside your big down parka and never come out, take into account all of the lovely things that accompany this weirdness — for instance, like local craft markets supporting a local, sustainable economy. The Gritty City Gift Fair, organized by local crafter/artist Jada-Moon Gridley, hosts 25 vendors Friday, Nov. 27 at The Robert Daniel Gallery.

Expect hand-made art, crafts and products — many with an alternative, quirky, unique or hip feel. Don’t expect sweatshop merchandise that steals your soul.
