St John the Evangelist Holiday Exstravaganza to Benefit Children's Clothing Center

Let St. John’s lavish Holiday Extravaganza Bazaar encourage your Christmas spirit to bloom like a narcissus in winter. Your kids can make their Christmas presents in the children’s craft area while you shop our bountiful selection of local crafters’ and artists’ lovingly constructed holiday goodies (Jewelry, gemstones and thundereggs);fabric crafts including stuffed animals, shawls, Pendleton wool bags, rugs and felted purses, fabric covered boxes and containers; hand-carved pottery, candles; lighthouse yard ornaments; and notecards) as well as home-made baked and canned goods that will knock your Christmas stockings off. New this year is a Treasure Trove of quality recycled decorative and Christmas items. Stay for a light gourmet lunch accompanied by local musicians. Also bring your knives and scissors to be sharpened by a professional while you shop.

And you can feel good that your contributions are furthering the outreach program of St. John’s, which through its William Temple House-affiliated Children’s Clothing Center has provided over 150 school-age children with new clothes to start the school year.
