Vendors & Performers Needed

Last year on Thanksgiving Weekend the Broadway Market launched Christmas Fair 2007 in celebration of Buffalo’s Christmas Season.
The celebration's tremendous success last year paved the way for this year's Christmas Fair 2008, which will take place on November 28 and 29. If you weren't able to attend last year don't miss this great event this year.
"The fair is meant to create a unique chance for the buffalo community to celebrate the holiday season. The Christmas Fairs were created based on models of centuries old European Christmas markets," Carol Bronnenkant, Co-Chair of the Christmas Fair explained. The Christmas Fairs showcase the ethnic foods that have made the Broadway Market famous, along with a wide variety of seasonal sweets, holiday decorations, enticing gift items and distinctive stocking stuffers.
Currently, the Broadway Market is looking for new vendors to expand the variety of specialty and ethnic foods and gifts at this year’s Christmas Fair. "This is a great opportunity for businesses that are not well known to expand their reach. The Christmas Fair is so reasonably priced that it's a great chance for new vendors who want to explore new marketing avenues," Bronnenkant stated. "The Christmas Fair is also looking for area musicians, choirs and dance groups who would like the chance to entertain new audiences at this family friendly event. Last year the performers who participated had a great time," Bronnenkant said.
For applications and additional information, vendors and performers can call the Broadway Market at 716.893.0705 or click here.

As we see the highway cobras being replaced (finally) in our neighborhoods, our commercial distri …

You know that you've run across a creative garden cooperative when you're shopping for gardening supplies and you come home with a work of art. That's why we're so lucky to have Urban Roots on the city's West Side. During the course of the year, the cooperative works hard towards teaming up with artists who live in the community. It is during the Holiday Season that there is a big push to shine a light on the creative individuals. And don't think that art just comes in the form of …
