Eco Design Xmas Fair, Islington
Eco-Design Christmas Fair 2010
Designed as an all-in-one sustainable and ethical shopping spree, the Eco-Design Christmas Fair returns for it's seventh year, providing a unique retail platform for the UK's most forward-thinking designers whose work is centred on environmentally considerate techniques.
The event promises an attractive and hassle-free shopping experience for those who wish to buy contemporary, fair and friendly products - perfect for a kooky, conscious, design-savvy crowd; one of the most stylish and inspiring sustainable events in town.
Come along and discover a fantastic range of quality Christmas gifts and gadgets, home accessories, fashion, footwear, jewellery, furniture, lighting, books, technology, baby clothes, toys and many more top British and Fairtrade sustainable products.
With prices to suit everyone, the Eco-Design Fair offers a rare chance to meet the designer/makers and chat about their challenges and criteria.
To add to the festive atmosphere, we'll have a little live music, plus textile recycling workshops:
Festive bunting run by the superb Seaside Sisters: http://seasidesisters.co.uk/about/
plus your chance to make your very own Festive Youdoodoll: http://www.youdoodoll.co.uk/home/ open to all ages & abilities. Bring along a small photo of yourself (or a freind), and we'll have the talented Eco Annie on hand to help you create your doll.
We'll have a refreshments area with organic, locally-sourced nibbles and hot spiced cider.
All this and more will be happening at our superb new venue, the beautiful, newly restored 1920's Assembly Hall, Islington.
