Take the Kindness Challenge at Viridian Artisan Market July 21
Viridian is collaborating with Here’s Your Reminder Project to encourage people to perform acts of kindness on Saturday, July 21, at the Viridian Artisan Market.
The group’s Kindness Crew will be at Viridian’s Overlook Park, 1210 Viridian Park Lane, from 9 to 11 a.m. challenging market-goers to perform Not-So-Random-Acts-of-Kindness™ for the people that mean the most to them.
Here’s Your Reminder Project is a no-profit dedicated to combating depression and strengthening relationships through intentional kindness and awareness. The Organization was founded by Susie Martin after years of waging her own battles with anxiety and depression. In addition to encouraging people to reach out to the people they care about with daily kindness reminders, Martin advocates for mental health and supports her charity with "Happy Goat Yoga - for Charity" classes.
Viridian has hosted several of the classes at the monthly markets but this is the first time the Arlington community has hosted the Kindness Challenge.
“The goal of the market is to create a sense of community,” said Debra Meers, Viridian’s marketing director. “What better way to do that than to encourage people to reach out and let family, friends and loved ones know they matter. We aren’t entirely sure what to expect, but we are sure it will be an uplifting experience.”
Here’s Your Reminder Project will be filming during the market and posting the acts they capture on their social media pages.
The Viridian Artisan Market takes place the third Saturday of each month from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. Vendors sell produce and artisanal goods. The themed markets also feature guest speakers from the Tarrant County Master Gardeners Association.
Viridian is a 2,000-acre master-planned community featuring nature and family-friendly amenities. Homes are priced from the $200,000s.
