The Dedham Junior Women's Club's 43rd Annual Craft Show will be coming up on Saturday, November 21, 2026 from 9:00 am to 3:00 pm at Dedham Middle School, 70 Whiting Ave.

The Craft Fair has grown in reputation and size since its small beginnings with a few tables at the Dedham Mall in the early 1980’s. The Craft Fair moved to the High School shortly after where vendors filled both gymnasiums at the school. Upon completion of the new middle school, the Craft Fair changed its location since the new school was handicapped accessible.

After more than 40 years, the DJWC Craft Fair has a reputation for being one of the best organized and well-attended craft fairs in the area. This year, there are one hundred juried crafters who will fill the gym, hallways and cafeteria of Dedham Middle School offering a variety of items for shoppers. The Craft Fair is a great way to kick off your holiday shopping, so make sure to come with your holiday shopping list.
