Happy Earth Day Artists!

Happy Earth Day, everyone!

In celebration of Earth Day, I just thought I'd mention that the Ballston Arts & Crafts Market is an environment-friendly event! Instead of using all conventional electricity, Welburn Square uses solar power to keep the Market bright and our musicians plugged in.

The market is also proud to host some of the best environmentally conscience artisans around! Check out which of your favorite Ballston A&C Market exhibitors are also doing their part to keep this world a greener place.


Artsy Fartsy upcycles plastics to create her jewelry


Solar Crepes is just that ... completely solar and uses only organic ingredients


Ashleybug's bibs & burp cloths are made with soft organic cotton


Herban Lifestyle only uses all-natural ingredients


Nikdapooh Designs creates sculptures using re-purposed materials, like lightbulbs


Kaylala Organic Apothecary lives up to it's name


And UglyKittyReDeux uses recycled & reclaimed materials


Fast Snail Greetings and Designs are printed on environmentally friendly papers

I'm so happy we're all doing our part to keep Arlington a little greener.
