Local artisans can apply through Friday, August 21, for a booth at Mill Valley Recreation's annual Holiday Craft Fair, set for Saturday, December 5, at the Mill Valley Community Center.
The free event runs from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. and draws more than 60 artists selling handmade goods, according to Mill Valley Recreation's event page. Categories span woodwork, jewelry, glass work, ceramics, decorations, knitwear, fiber arts, and plants.
It's a juried show. Every item on display must be made by the artist selling it, and applications close at 5 p.m. on August 21, Mill Valley Recreation said on Instagram.
The fair is one of several annual events Mill Valley Recreation stages at the Community Center, alongside the Spring Faire in March, the Re-Loved Market in April, the Freedom Festival in June, and Halloween at the Center in October. Past editions have featured both returning vendors and newcomers.
Cole Ross, program supervisor at Mill Valley Recreation, is the point of contact for prospective vendors. Ross can be reached at (415) 383-1370 or [email protected].
Shoppers pay nothing to attend. The Community Center offers ample parking, making the fair accessible for visitors across southern Marin.
Artisans interested in applying can do so online here. Those who miss the August 21 deadline can sign up for email notifications about future vendor calls through a link on the city's event page.
Upcoming community dates:
- Friday, August 21: Holiday Craft Fair vendor application deadline (5 p.m.)
- Saturday, December 5: Holiday Craft Fair, 10 a.m.–4 p.m., Mill Valley Community Center (free admission)
