About this Event
Taking place on December 12th, 2021 at The Deacon (F.K.A The First African Baptist Church) - CADO is an experiential art fair and makers market, highlighting the Philadelphia region’s Black artists, small businesses, and makers. Curated by Debora Charmelus, this holiday market will serve as a incubator and will allow creatives from across the region to meet, support, and discover Black-owned or led brands. All proceeds from ticket sales will be donated to 2 charitable organizations.
About the organizations:
The Youth Art & Self-empowerment Project: The Youth Art & Self-Empowerment Project (YASP) is building a youth-led movement to end the practice of trying and incarcerating young people as adults. Through its work in the Philadelphia jails, YASP provides space for incarcerated young people to express themselves creatively and to develop as leaders both within and beyond the Pr*son walls.
VM Haiti: VM Haiti was created out of a response to directly aid the people of Mathurin Haiti. Since their creation, they've distributed food after natural disasters and built a school that has now tested second in the region. Donations go to directly employ teachers in the small village of Mathurin.
