Olde Redding Faire
Olde Redding Faire – Our 70th Year!
Saturday, September 26th, 10am-2pm at 25 Woburn Street
Come join the fun celebrating the original Reading Fall Faire. There will be all the past favorites plus exciting new items.
§Your first stop might be the Bake Table, since they typically sell out by the end for the Faire! They have moved indoors this year. Look for them with the Silent Auction in our beautiful Sanctuary.
§The Farm Stand will feature an expanded offering of handcrafted items, mums, notecards, and jams. And they have offered to hold your mums while you enjoy the rest of the Faire.
§Visit the Puzzles tent for the best prices on a wide selection of jigsaw puzzles. There will be options for all skill levels.
§Faire Food will provide a great lunch or snack. Pulled pork, coleslaw, mac & cheese, Harrow’s Chicken Pie, Nella’s pizza, Empanadas from Del Sur, plus drinks and ice cream treats.
§Have fun in the Kids’ Game area. We will have games of skill and some just for fun! And, back by popular demand, Face Painting!
§Want to freshen your style? Check out the great assortment in our Jewely Room, at bargain prices.
§The Book Room will have everything from children’s books to vintage editions, all at fantastic prices. Pick out old favorites or take the opportunity to expand your library.
§The Silent Auction item will all be on display during the Faire. Come down and place your bids. (Online bidding closes at 4pm.)
§Professional artist A.J. Jerrett will be drawing Caricatures so you can take home a one-of-a-kind memento!
§The Reading Community Concert Band will perform at 11am on the lawn, if weather allows or indoors if not. Enjoy these talented musicians while you stroll the Faire.
§Representatives from our Community Partners will be on hand to discuss their missions. Meet the leaders of the Reading Food Pantry and Mission of Deeds, which will both receive a portion of the Faire’s profits.
Donations are welcomed and help support the Faire. Make sure everything is in sellable, safe condition. Jewelry may be dropped off in the church office Monday-Thursday between 10am and 1pm. Books and Puzzles may be dropped off in the hallway just past the church office, Monday - Friday between 10am - 7pm. Questions: OldeReddingFaire@gmail.com
