CSHS Music Boosters Gearing Up for 26th Annual Spring Craft Show

It was 26 years ago that the Carl Sandburg Music Boosters debuted the first CSHS Spring Craft Show in an effort to support the renowned music program at CSHS. The craft show has now grown to become one of the most anticipated annual craft shows in the area.

Numerous crafters will be in attendance to make shopping for Easter and spring essentials a breeze.

“This year, the show will feature over 115 crafters and vendors,” said event organizer Elise Wehmeier. “Offerings will include handmade jewelry, home decor items, hand-crafted gifts, wood crafts, iron work, food, clothing, handbags and more.”

The show will also offer raffle prizes, food concessions, a bake sale and entertainment.

Attendees will be entertained by the musical performances of students throughout the event weekend.

“We thought it would be nice for shoppers to be able to hear a sample of what the proceeds from this event help support,” explained Carl Sandburg Music Booster President Don Vacha. “Offering opportunities that nurture the musical talents of the students at Sandburg is what this event is all about.”

The 26th annual Carl Sandburg Music Boosters Spring Craft Show will be held Saturday, March 14 from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. and Sunday, March 15 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Carl Sandburg High School, 13300 S. LaGrange Rd., Orland Park.

Carl Sandburg High School offers free, ample on-site parking. Admission is $2 per person/ children age 12 and under admitted free.

All proceeds from the CSHS Music Boosters directly benefit the music program and students at Carl Sandburg High School.
