December 14th and 15th at Fox Valley Mall
A True Latin American Christmas Experience
The Midwest’s largest artisan Latin American Marketplace is coming to Fox Valley Mall on December 14 to 15. Find authentic, unique and rare items from a variety of countries south of the border. Vendors will be selling everything from hand-crafted clothing, artisan jewelry, mouth-watering pastries and so much more. There will also be authentic dance performance and art project for children at Center Stage. This is not any artisan market; it is a one-of-a-kind experience that normally requires a passport.
