Your "Socially Conscious Global Marketplace." - The Washington Post
The Culture Shop provides an exciting offering of personal and decorative accessories sourced from indigenous craftspeople around the world, including the United States. We promote social and economic progress of talented artisans in developing countries by marketing their products in a fairly-traded manner. We educate our audience through socially and culturally conscious events; through our book store, we host educational programs for children and adults.
We aim to become the region's top destination for an ethnically rich selection of handcrafted objects that exude the spirit and culture of these artisans; we will offer our discerning friends and patrons a varied selection of high quality and rare products -- each representing the best, the very best our global community has to offer.
