Once again, the Rosie's Place Craft Fair at South Station on December 22nd was a tremendous success. MBCR hosted the women from the Rosie's Place Craft Cooperative on the concourse to sell jewelry. The cooperative allows women from the shelter to become more independent by introducing them to skills and the basics of merchandising. This year has surpassed all previous fairs which may have been party due to many people were purchasing last minute gifts.
