It’s Almost the Season: BFS Winter Craft Fair is Coming

November 11th, 2008 · No Comments

If you haven’t read it anywhere else, then… well, you’ve only just started your daily blog reading with us. If you’ve already read it – pardon us. We want to help spread the word, and just can’t help it if organizers inundate the entire Greater New York blogosphere. That being said…with the holiday season closing in, your chance is coming to knock out that gift list with your one-stop shop at the annual BFS Winter Craft Fair on Sat (12/6) from 10am-5pm at the Brooklyn Friends School (375 Pearl Street). And there’s a lot going on throughout the entire school:

In the Lower Gym there will be 40 vendors presenting a wonderful array of crafts, pottery, quilts, needlework, jewelry, accessories, children’s books, and gifts. This is definitely the place to be for one-stop holiday shopping at great prices. Be sure to visit the section featuring craft items created by BFS students. In the Lobby, there will be a fabulous selection of holiday plants and wreaths, fresh from the greenmarket in Canarsie. In the Third Floor Library, our BFS librarians host the annual Scholastic Book Fair. Nearby, in the Conference Room, volunteers will be wrapping gifts for the St. Johns Place Family Center families. In the Cafeteria, there will be a variety of baked goods, a cupcake-decorating station, and a full lunch menu of home-made and locally produced food.

Sounds like a perfect start to the numerous holiday fairs that will be popping up around our the borough.
