Reserve your table now for the annual St. John ELC Christmas Vendor & Craft Fair to be held on Saturday, December 1 in Darien.

St. John Lutheran Early Learning Center (ELC) at 7214 South Cass Avenue in Darien is seeking crafters, artists, and vendors for its 14th Annual Vendor & Craft Fair on Saturday, December 1, 2018 from 9:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. Proceeds from the event benefit the Early Learning Center Fund.

Each year this extensive showcase of handmade and retail items provides the perfect opportunity for patrons to find items on their Christmas gift list in one convenient location. There is space for 65 vendors on two levels in our handicapped accessible building with an adjacent parking lot. Our location on a main street also helps to attract business.

In addition to free admission, other activities are planned to ensure good foot traffic. There will be food for sale, a bake sale, and raffle. Candy Cane Lane will offer supervised season-themed activities for children from 11:00 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. so consumers can shop kid-free.
