posted on Tuesday, November 27, 2007 by While catching up on feeds during lunch yesterday, I noticed a post on Mark Maynard's site about shopping locally. Amanda and I had talked about, while out filming Pedal, doing gift shopping this year from independent people: indie filmmakers, penniless musicians, non-franchise stores, et cetera.
I really love the idea of shopping on a person to person level. Unfortunately, I am unable to afford a plane ticket to Michigan for the weekend of the Shadow Art Fair, but I still plan on buying from those local (Detroit'ish) artist through their websites.
I just felt that the "Buy Local Michigan / Shop Ypsi" campaign was a great thing, and wanted to help spread the word as much as I can.
