Mark your calendars, and take part in the opening of Wintercraft, at Mahon Hall, on December 4th.
Lots happening, with craft sales / artists offerings...gifts for your special ones.
The following was emailed to me, from the organizer of Wintercraft (the alternate to ArtCraft, in the summer season):
"Wintercraft, along with two other traditional Salt Spring Island craft faires at Fulford and Beaver Point Halls, will open concurrently during the weekend of December 4, 5, 6. This festive, weekend-long, island-wide, market of merriment offers an impressive selection of the the finest handmade arts and crafts from the Southern Gulf Islands.
Handmade gifts range from; pocket and kitchen knives produced in Salt Spring Island's bronze foundry, high fashion wearables in silk and local fine wool, earthy & elegant tableware, afforable & astounding jewelry pieces, luxurious body products and everything in between.
The weekend events taking place range from; the seasonal, sell-out lamb feast at Beaver Point Hall on Friday, December 4th to crepes, lunch and decadent desserts produced full-tilt, from two community kitchens all weekend in Fulford. Wintercraft provides live music, weekend workshops and the widest selection of heartwarming gifts from stocking stuffers to dazzling presents Dec 4 - 20th. Travellers to the island please note that only Wintercraft runs through to December 20th.
Fulford Hall: Dec 4 - 6th
Beaver Point Hall: Dec 4 - 6th
Wintercraft at Mahon Hall, Dec 4 - 20th"
Enjoy all these venues! It's our "holiday season" and it's full of elan and verve, island style!
