  • "You cannot look at these photographs without feeling the love, joy, and pride in every picture and profession . . . a unique tapestry of stories, waiting to be shared." (Mark Cafferty, CEO, San Diego Regional Economic Development Corporation) We're impressed by the resilience of Artisan Businesses. We wanted a creative way to tell their stories, while celebrating their work. So here is "Butcher, Baker, Candlestick Maker" - a photography exhibit that invites conversations about supporting local small businesses. We're showcasing butchers from Valley Farm Market and The Meatery, bakers Hija del Maiz and Astra Bakehouse, and candlemakers 1502 Candles and Moo Lala! How do artisan business owners and their families thrive in San Diego (which Architectural Digest named America's "most expensive city")? Rebecca Smith and TJ Carter are the collaborators of this installation. Reception will be Thursday, September 19, 4:00p.m. - 5:30p.m. For more information on the reception visit: sandiego.librarymarket.com
