Festival of Lights Art + Craft Fair

Join us on December 7 & 8 for the 42nd annual Festival of Lights Art & Craft fair. With 60 artists from the region, you'll have the chance to peruse inventories spanning ceramics, wood, jewelry, glass, books, photography, fiber and more! Featuring workshops in printmaking, sewing, and ornament making you'll be more prepared than ever for the upcoming holiday season.
