Artisan Holiday Fair 2023
The 2023 Holiday Artisans Fair is on its way!
Saturday, December 2nd from 9 to 1
We’re back! And we hope to make this year’s event both festive and fun! The traditional holiday fair takes on a bit of a flair as we showcase the amazing talent of Allen Avenue UU members and friends!
Artisans
Visitors will be able to browse tables filled with gorgeous pieces made with love. Some of the featured products are beautiful pieces crafted from wood; pottery pieces including chalices, bowls, and more; stunning photography in the form of prints and cards; creative and beautifully made crafts. The artists will be “in-house” and ready to answer your questions!
Fiber Arts
This area will feature a huge assortment of clothing and accessories made with love by a large group of devoted “makers”—knitted, crocheted, sewn, felted, cross-stitched, etc. You’ll find items for all ages in addition to decorative treats.
Classy Crafts
This area will feature all kinds of handmade items that don’t fit into the Fiber Arts area! Examples might include jewelry, stained glass, suncatchers, ornaments, plants, ceramics and more!
Fine Foods
This area is for all kinds of gorgeous homemade goodies. It’s a veritable rainbow of goodness! Expect to find handmade candies, special cookies and cakes wrapped in cute boxes or bags (think biscotti, or baklava), jellies, jams, preserves or marmalade, fudge, pickled anything, sauces, pies, cakes, and more! Wrapped up and ready for giving.
Café
Hungry or thirsty while you shop? We will have a Café for delectables to be consumed on the spot or brought home for treats! These will include hot and cold drinks, breakfast items, sandwiches or other hand-held lunch items and of course, many desserts.
Children’s Crafts
Have kids? We are planning a Children’s Holiday Crafts room where kids can make simple crafts and then decorate gift bags to pack them in. There are lots of ideas in the making and your kids will have a ball while you shop!
Theme Baskets
Not quite sure what you want? We are having a Theme Basket Raffle! There will be beautiful baskets full of goodies to make someone’s day. Some previous themes have been Music for Children, Family Movie Night, Spa Day, Cat Goodies, Dog Goodies, Baby Goodies, Science and Nature—it’s almost endless! Customers will be able to purchase raffle tickets that can be placed in containers next to each basket. The winners will be drawn at the end of the Market—no need to be present to win!
