FINE ARTS & CRAFTS FAIR at All Saints'

The annual Arts & Crafts Fair at All Saints' Episcopal Church, in Carmel between Dolores and Lincoln at 9th, Saturday, November 23rd, from 9:00 am to 3:00 p.m. will be adding more artisans this year. Admission is free. The Fair is a few blocks from the Homecrafters Marketplace at Sunset Center at San Carlos between 8th and 9th Avenues., and the holiday Faire at Wayfarer Church, Lincoln & 7th Avenue, offering you a "triple crown" of art fairs all within a few blocks of one another! All Saints' artisans will be in Seccombe Hall and the lower patio off Lincoln. It will be held rain or shine!
We will have help again this year from our neighbor, St. John the Baptist Green Orthodox Church, who shares our campus. Our chefs will once again be grilling sausages, onions and peppers on the lower patio, so there will be delicious hot lunches for purchase.
With the hustle and bustle of the upcoming holidays, we look forward to making your shopping easier by announcing the participants of our Fine Arts and Crafts Fair a month before the Fair. All items are carefully handcrafted.

All Saints' Church    In addition to the hot sausage lunch will sell delicious, packaged desserts to eat on the run or taken home to eat, saving you time before or during the holidays. We also welcome you to attend Sunday services with us or to visit our special events.
