VIDEA’s Winter Fair

Join us and shop with a conscience on Saturday, November 30th, from 11 am to 4 pm at the Fernwood Community Centre!

Formerly known as the Fair Trade Fair, VIDEA’s Winter Fair showcases stunning artisan clothing, handmade gifts, home décor, jewellery, and personal care items – all from Fair Trade and Indigenous vendors! Enjoy delicious food from the incredible International Women’s Catering Co-op!

VIDEA is a non-profit organization that strengthens the environment where youth and communities globally have access to the education, skills and support necessary to take feminist leadership in development solutions to gender inequality, the climate crisis, Indigenous and human rights violations, and injustice. We are a women’s organization working to create the conditions where the voices of those who identify as women, girls, gender-diverse and 2SLGBTQ+, and folks with additional barriers are brought to the centre of conversations.

VIDEA’s work is led by women, First Nations, Métis and Inuit youth, youth with disabilities, 2SLGBTQ+ folks, and those with lived experience of the issues we work on.

We strongly believe in the power of community connections for global change, and this event is no exception. For over 20 years, VIDEA’s annual fair has brought together socially and justice-conscious folks to shop locally, internationally, and ethically! Last year was our first year back, and it was so special that we can’t wait to do it again and showcase more of the incredible talent in our communities.

In line with our organizational values, VIDEA doesn’t charge vendors to sell at this event. Folks who would like to donate to VIDEA at the door are welcome, but not obligated, to do so.
