Getting crafty

Artisans, musicians, community support at ‘Not Yo Mama’s’ fair

Hundreds of guests and nearly 100 vendors turned out on June 25 in the Morgan parking lot in Jersey City for the third annual Not Yo Mama’s Craft Fair, a yearly celebration of homegrown artists, musicians, and craft-based small businesses.
