Holliston Newcomers 36th Annual Craft Fair

The

Holliston Newcomers Club is proud to announce its 36th Annual Craft Fair. The

Craft Fair is an annual event that is held the weekend before Thanksgiving in

Holliston, MA at Holliston High. It is a juried craft fair of about 125

crafters that pride themselves on their hand-made works.





This

year the fair will be held on Sunday

November 24th from 9am – 4pm
.  There

are a variety of returning artisans from around New England and the

Mid-Atlantic, plus dozens of new ones. Crafter categories include:  Bath & Body, Children’s Items, Edible

Delights, Jewelry, Home & Personal Accessories, and Glass, Pottery &

Wooden Items.   Shop for holiday gifts and find something for

yourself too!

As is

tradition, the Craft Fair will feature a bake table and hourly raffle drawings

for crafts donated by the fair’s talented artisans.  Guests who bring a non-perishable food item

for the Holliston Food Pantry will receive a free ticket to be entered in the

hourly drawings.
