This coming Saturday, September 23, the streets of Kingston will come alive with vibrant hues and the buzz of excitement as the Kingston Grandmother Connection hosts its exceptional Outdoor Market at 617 Earl St. (corner of Earl and Willingdon Ave.) from 9 am to 2 pm. Whether you’re on the hunt for unique African Baskets, diving into a trove of Used and Childrens’ Books, or exploring a collection of toys, sewing masterpieces, eco-friendly products, and mesmerizing Sandglass Creations, there’s something for everyone. And let’s not forget about the beautiful houseplants & perennials, as well as the handcrafted greeting cards ready to be a part of your cherished memories.
But this isn’t just about shopping; it’s about coming together for a noble cause. Every purchase you make contributes to a brighter future for African grandmothers and their families who are battling the devastating effects of the AIDS pandemic and other adversities. Through the Stephen Lewis Foundation’s Grandmothers to Grandmothers Campaign and Help Lesotho, your support provides hope and resilience. So, mark your calendar and, in case of rain, we’ve got you covered with a rescheduled date of Sunday, September 24. Come and be a part of this heartwarming initiative!
