and also The 2nd annual Deforest Music Parent’s Craft Fair. This event is in conjunction with the Village Winterfest.
The Craft Fair is this Saturday, December 3, 2011, at the Yahara Elementary School from 9am – 3pm. The Music Parent Association will use the proceeds for new choir risers at the middle school and summer music clinic scholarships. There will be a hot dog and snack concession stand and 50 local craft vendors. Music is provided all day from High School and Middle School Staff and Students. There is a special performance by the Yahara Swing Choir and Recorder Consort at1:00pm. Please come and support our wonderful music students! Food pantry items will also be collected for the local food pantry.
The advantages of shopping at an open house…
I thought it might be nice to point some of these things out.
When you shop at an open house, you get to see the creative space and get a better perspective of how the creative process works. Of course you get to know the artist a little better when you share a glass of wine and some homemade cookies.
A big benefit is that because of the lower overhead vs a show or store that would add consignment fees, is that the artist is able to lower the prices giving you some great deals on last minute shopping!
Who knows what else? You might run into someone you met briefly before and felt like you really connected. Leading to a serendipitous moment that propels you into a lifetime of happiness. Well, I don’t know if I can promise you that, but everything else is very happening this Saturday… Hope you can make it.
