About this Event

Artisan Mercado, a Latinx art market, is holding a Christmas Wreath Fundraiser to benefit the Central Texas Food Bank Saturday, Nov. 15, Dec. 6 and Dec. 20 at 506 Congress Ave., Austin, TX

From 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., on the first and third Saturday, visitors can make a Christmas wreath with free materials supplied by the Artisan Mercado and are asked for a voluntary donation to the Central Texas Food Bank. The Mercado has a goal of $1,000 and the donation goes directly to the Central Texas Food Bank. Attendees, in turn, will take home a holiday wreath to decorate their homes.

Artisan Mercado decided to hold a fundraiser for the Central Texas Food Bank because many local families are being affected by federal budget cuts, job loss and inflation, according to Claudio López, Artisan Mercado co-founder.

“As the economy spirals out of control, millions can no longer afford groceries. Last year, our Christmas Wreath workshop was free and we had many families take advantage of it. This year, we thought that we could also ask for a voluntary donation for the Central Texas Food Bank. It would be whatever someone can afford, $10 or more,” stated López.

Upon creating a Christmas wreath, visitors can donate through a JustGiving page created by the Artisan Mercado at ArtisanMercado2025CentralTexasFoodBankFundraiser and the Central Texas Food Bank sends a receipt through email. For those that cannot attend, donations are accepted 24/7 through the donation link.

Aside from the Christmas wreath activity, visitors can also find unique, handmade gifts at the Latinx market and those sourced from Mexico and Latin America. These include handcrafted jewelry, arts and crafts, paintings, clothing, hats and textiles from Mexico.

El Artisan Mercado, un mercado de arte latino, llevará a cabo una campaña de recaudación de Fondos para el Banco de Alimentos del Centro de Texas a través del evento público para la hechura de Coronas Navideñas el sábado 15 de noviembre, así como el 6  y el 20 de diciembre en 506 Congress Ave. Austin, TX

De 10 a.m. a 4 p.m., los visitantes pueden hacer una corona navideña con materiales gratuitos proporcionados por el Artisan Mercado y se les pide una donación voluntaria para el Central Texas Food Bank. El mercado tiene una meta de $1,000 y la donación irá directamente al banco de comida. Los visitantes, a cambio, se llevarán a casa una corona festiva para decorar sus hogares.

El Artisan Mercado decidió realizar una recaudación de fondos para el Central Texas Food Bank debido a que muchas familias locales están siendo afectadas por los recortes presupuestarios federales, la pérdida de empleos y la inflación, según los organizadores de Artisan Mercado.

"A medida que la economía se sale de control, a millones de personas ya no les alcanza para comprar comida. El año pasado, nuestro taller de Coronas Navideñas (que fue gratuito),  muchas familias lo aprovecharon. Este año, pensamos que podríamos pedir una donación voluntaria para el Central Texas Food Bank. Sería lo que pudieran pagar: $1, $5, $10 o más".

Al hacer su corona, los visitantes pueden donar a través de una página de JustGiving creada por el Artisan Mercado en ArtisanMercado2025CentralTexasFoodBankFundraiser. Se les proporcionará un recibo del Central Texas Food Bank al terminar el trámite por correo electrónico. Para los que no pueden asistir al mercado, se aceptan donaciones las 24 horas del día, los 7 días de la semana con el enlace para donaciones.  

Además de la actividad de las coronas navideñas, los visitantes también podrán encontrar regalos únicos hechos a mano en el mercado Latinx y artículos procedentes de México y América Latina. Estos incluyen joyas artesanales, artes y artesanías, pinturas, ropa, sombreros, trabajos de madera y textiles de México.
