The Chappaqua Craft and Gift Fair Celebrates its 32nd Year with More Than 80 Local Artisans and Crafts People

Admire the work of more than 80 local merchants, crafts people and artisans while stocking up on holiday gifts at this year’s Chappaqua Craft and Gift Fair. The Fair will feature vendors exhibiting their fine handmade pottery, unique handcrafted jewelry, clothing, handbags and accessories, gourmet food, bath and beauty products and myriad other unique and original items, just in time for the holiday gift season. Admission is free and vendor fees support PTA-run enrichment programs at Bell Middle School.

Local restaurants including Skinny Buddha and Villarina’s will offer family-friendly food, and a “Donation Alley” featuring local nonprofits will hold drives and provide fun activities like face painting for kids. Many vendors are providing their crafts to a raffle, with proceeds benefiting the Bell PTA.

There is no admission fee and free Parking is available across the street at the Chappaqua Train Station. The fair takes place on Saturday, November 19, 2016 from 10am to 4pm at Robert E. Bell Middle School, located at 50 Senter Street in Chappaqua.

The Chappaqua Craft and Gift Fair is the largest fundraising event held by the Robert J. Bell Middle School PTA, and vendor fees from the event provide funding for student enrichment programs, after school programming and supplemental music and computer programs. The Bell PTA also offers scholarships for field trips, after school programs and other needs for families and students with financial needs. The PTA’s funding of supplemental art and enrichment programs provides young people with outlets beyond academics and sports and offers them global insight and perspective.
