Nearly 50 vendors will sell a wide assortment of products at the University of Wyoming Holiday Market Friday, Dec. 13.

Staff Senate sponsors the market, which is open from 9 a.m.-4 p.m. in the Buchanan Center for the Performing Arts lobby. The event is free and open to the public.

This year’s market will feature local vendors who will offer a variety of items for sale, including homemade craft items, handmade soaps and lotions, jewelry, baked goods, housewares, local meats, and wood and textile crafts.

Staff Senate will sell tickets to its fall meat raffle and holiday cash 50/50 raffle. The proceeds will support staff scholarships, the Employee of the Quarter program and other staff activities.

Free parking will be available in “A” and “C” spaces in the lots directly north and east of the Performing Arts Center from 9 a.m.-4 p.m. Metered parking also will be available. In addition, attendees can use the free shuttle service. For more information about campus parking and shuttle services, visit www.uwyo.edu/tps.

UW Acting President Neil Theobald has granted 2.5 hours of release time for UW employees to attend the market. The scheduling of release time should be a collaborative discussion between employee and supervisor to ensure the effective and efficient operation of the unit.
