Looking for unique, one-of-a-kind holiday gifts that celebrate creativity, sustainability, and community? Join me at the Aldo Leopold Nature Center’s Holiday Market, where local artists and makers come together in a festive, eco-conscious atmosphere. Discover beautifully crafted, nature-inspired works — from hand-dyed scarves and slow-stitched textiles to handcrafted jewelry, art, and locally made foods — all supporting creativity and conservation.

I’m thrilled to return to the Monona area and to be part of this intentionally curated event highlighting artists whose work reflects environmental awareness and sustainable values. Plus, one of my favorite artist friends, SJWHandmade, will also be there, sharing her upcycled wool wearables and cozy handmade creations. With free admission and parking, it’s the perfect place to shop local, find meaningful gifts, and celebrate the season surrounded by nature!
