Holiday Shopping Made Easy!

Here is an event that will make your Holiday Shopping easy!  The Pennsylvania Guild Fine Craft Fair will be held this year at the Lancaster Convention Center in downtown Lancaster.
The annual Lancaster area event was held over the last 3 years at the Manheim Township High School off Lititz Pike.  The move allows the craft show to grow from 120 exhibitors to 140 exhibitors, and to be exhibited in one large space as opposed to the three spaces used at the high school.  The Guild is also teaming up with the Lancaster Parking Authority to offer $2 all day parking for show patrons at five participating parking garages in downtown Lancaster.
“Our mission is to support fine craftsmen and introduce the public to handcrafted works,’ says Guild executive director Sherrie Boyer.  ”The move to the Lancaster Convention Center creates more visibility for our craftsmen and more access for patrons and the public.  Buying local and buying handmade serve so many needs; our patrons support the arts and local artists – and our craftsmen are able to meet the public, educate about craft, and earn a living.  It’s a positive experience for everyone.”
With such a wide array of fine and talented craftsmen right here in the region, why not give handmade and local this holiday season?
Show hours are Saturday 10 - 6 and Sunday 10 - 5.
