Heritage Museum's Holiday Bazaar set for Nov. 1, 2

The weather is changing toward the long winter and that can only mean it’s nearly time for the Heritage Museum’s Holiday Bazaar, which comes Nov. 1 and 2 this year.

The fun begins at 5 p.m. Friday, Nov. 1 and continues til 8 p.m. On Saturday, Nov. 2, the bazaar continues from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.

The museum’s aisles will be transformed to a shopper’s delight with table after table of woodcrafts, baskets, needlecrafts, pottery, jewelry, photographs, artwork, holiday décor, baked goods, candies and more.

Whether you’re shopping for gift-giving or just for yourself, you’re sure to find something that suits your taste on the crafters’ well-stocked tables.

In addition, the museum’s table will be overflowing with items and gift certificates that have been generously donated for this sale by local merchants and friends of the museum. All  of the money earned at this table goes directly to the museum.

Before or after shopping, stop in at the museum’s historic cookhouse where baked potatoes are on the menu on Friday night. Then on Saturday, hungry shoppers will want to make their way to the cookhouse for lunch. Bakers will be sure there is a nice selection of pies and cakes on hand.

The Holiday Bazaar is the museum’s main fundraiser of the year, using the profits to cover the yearly insurance premium and the winter heating bills.
