Dedham Junior Women's Club to host 37th Annual Craft Show

The halls, gym and cafeteria of the Dedham Middle School will be filled with hand crafted treasures from crafters all over New England when the Dedham Junior Women’s Club holds its 37th Annual Craft Show on Saturday, November 17, 2018.

The Craft Fair committee has sent out the acceptances to crafters and will be working on placing the crafters in their spots in the weeks to come. “Our craft show runs like a fine-tuned engine” said Elaine Mellon, one of the co-chairs of the Craft Show Committee. “Some of us have been on this committee so long that we could do this in our sleep”. Elaine, along with Holly Dixon, Ellen Burns and Barbara McKenna have been on the craft show committee for over 15 years. Along with other committee members, they work from January through November in organizing the event.

This year there will be over 90 crafters selling their handcrafted items including jewelry, handbags and other fashion accessories, pottery, Christmas ornaments and home décor items, soaps, candles, doll clothes, mittens and winter apparel, hand painted wine glasses, personalized pajamas and more.

The Craft Show is the Dedham Junior Women’s Club’s largest fundraiser. Proceeds from the show help to fund the club’s scholarship program and donations to local, national and international organizations.

Lunch will be served in the cafeteria and the popular crafters’ raffle table will be back again this year.

Admission to the show is $5.00 per person with children under 12 free. The show will run from 9:00 am to 3:00 pm.
