Crafting through Christmas

Continued from page 6

Nov. 19 and Dec. 10 - Goderich

While Goderich has become well known as a destination for those looking for great gifts year round, The Christmas Makers Market has become well known as a reliable destination for those looking for a unique holiday gift. The annual collaboration between the Goderich BIA and the MacKay Centre for Seniors will take place on two separate dates - Nov 19 for early birds and Dec 10 for last second shoppers. There will be many artisanal craft vendors on the main floor, and the lower level will also have original art for sale from the Goderich Art Club, who have been fuelling the town’s art scene since 1952.

The Goderich Festival of Lights kicks off on Nov 18, so be sure to stop by Courthouse Square for photos or just to soak up the spirit of the season.
