CRAFT BOUTIQUE
For the crafting people among us, we will again be offering Homebrew Boutique. A chance to sell your marvelous handmade crafts to a waiting audience! We supply tables and chairs – no cost to you. We track all sales and collect the money for later distribution to the craft people. We will have a large room that will be locked at night. Just please remember, everything is to be handmade – not from another country for resale here.
Call Sue Cogger, K7SUZ, 801 829-3614 with any questions.
You can sign-up for a craft table here.
