Temple Torat Yisrael to hold second annual holiday craft market

EAST GREENWICH, R.I. — Temple Torat Yisrael will welcome the community to its second annual holiday craft market Nov. 15, from 11 a.m.-3 p.m.

The synagogue’s social hall will be transformed into a festive holiday marketplace featuring handmade arts and crafts from more than 20 local artists and vendors. Shoppers will have the opportunity to browse unique, locally made items and to find special gifts in time for the winter holiday season.

Organizers say the craft market is a “wonderful opportunity to support local artists and small businesses while enjoying a fun afternoon with friends and family.”

Those searching for a one-of-a-kind gift or simply hoping to see what talented local artisans have created will have plenty to discover, organizers promise.

The event will be held at Temple Torat Yisrael, 1251 Middle Road, East Greenwich, Rhode Island.

Admission is open to the community. Vendors interested in participating are also encouraged to apply. For additional information or a vendor application, email TTYsisterhood@gmail.com.
