 Henniker will host a special holiday shopping event on Small Business Saturday, Nov. 30, from 2 to 5 p.m. The Henniker Handmade & Homegrown group is organizing this pop-up boutique at the Henniker Community Center, 57 Main St., showcasing 12 local artists and makers.  

Visitors can shop for unique, locally crafted items, including needle-felted wool ornaments, honey, beeswax candles, soaps, skincare products, fine art prints, woodworking, handprinted apparel, handwoven textiles, wine, and jewelry. Among the artisans featured are two juried members of the League of NH Craftsmen: Erica Walker Jewelry and Monica Rico of Wood Thrush Farm.  

The event will also include live music by Henniker-based band Beechwood and on-site food from the Taco Beyondo food truck.  

This event offers an opportunity to support small businesses while finding meaningful, handmade gifts. Whether shopping for holiday presents or treating yourself, the Henniker Handmade Holiday promises a festive afternoon of local talent, food, and music.
