Crafts, cookies and concessions are just the start of the annual Holiday Craft Fair in Keaau, put on by the Women’s Fellowship of Puna Covenant Church.
The Holiday Craft Fair at the church on Old Volcano Highway will be open 8 a.m.-2 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 14.
Proceeds from the fair will go to further the many charitable works of this ministry.
“We’ve made it a tradition to package gifts for women in the Domestic Violence Shelter, to support children of abuse, to contribute to missionaries overseas … and to help bring fellowship and love to people in East Hawaii,” said Marcia Prose, chairperson for the annual event. “We also want to provide a safe, inexpensive venue for local crafters to sell their handmade goods.
“Times are tough and crafters find it hard to make a living paying high booth fees to promoters. Our local craft people will be offering an amazing display of sewn items, jewelry, wreaths and much more.”
Food concessions and a huge array of “ono-licious” baked goods also will be on sale, according to event co-chairperson Esther Schneider.
“And hungry shoppers can select from various kinds of breakfast and lunch items from the food concessions,” she added.
There will be “a nice selection of plants, cut flowers and ti” also available, said plant booth organizer Raejean Brown.
“Remember to stop by and see what greenery will be on sale,” Brown said.
The public is invited to shop and share the holiday atmosphere. There is no admission fee.
