First Thursdays at the Exchange

Founded in 1880, the Woman’s Industrial Exchange works to support underserved men and women by providing them with opportunities for selling, refining and marketing their handcrafted items.

Located in downtown Baltimore, the organization is housed in a historic building that features a gift shop, meeting room, seven recently renovated apartments and the oh-so-wonderful Sofi’s Crepes.

Join them Thursday, Aug. 7, from 5–7 p.m. for their semi-annual sale of handmade goods. And from 6-8 p.m., you are welcome to bring your own handmade projects to share with everyone there.

WIE will also be hosting a series of Artist Trunk Shows, beginning this fall. For more information, give them a call at 410-685-4388 or visit their web site.
