Artisans hawk their wares in Union Square

By George P. Hassett

Dozens of craftspeople, artists and farmers congregated outside at Union Square’s plaza and inside at the Toast Lounge Dec. 10 to sell their work and support Union Square business.

The Winter Craft Market is part of the Union Square Main Streets program, a non-profit organization of residents, business and property owners assembled to revitalize the square.

Items sold at the market ranged from Christmas wreaths to multicolored knit caps to rare books.
