Holiday Fair
The Fair! Yes, it’s planning time already. The UUSE Artisan Holiday Market (because it’s so much more than a run-of-the-mill fair) will be held on
Friday, Nov. 22, 2024, 6 to 8:30 PM
Saturday, Nov. 23, 2024, 9 AM to 3 PM
Please note the new hours!
The fair is our biggest fundraiser and is especially important because a large portion of the funds raised come from the public and not from our pockets. So be sure to advertise far and wide! Tell everyone you know!
How to Help
It’s time to craft, create, bake, and assemble your stuff!
We sell all sorts of things at the fair, from beautiful, handcrafted pieces to fabulous finds from your attic, vintage jewelry to cookies. Click here for a list of the various “shops” and their leaders. LINK to HOW TO HELP doc on website
