~ The one ~ The only ~ The best ~ The juiciest ~
The thing you’ve all been waiting for, with bated breath & squirmy excitement… It’s the BEVY!
This Sunday, December 5th at Kokanee Chalets, left of Red’s Bakery, from 10-4!
The Bevy of Angels Yule Artisan Faire has been happening for 2 decades. We skipped last year, 2020, because of universal complications and high global angst, but WE ARE BACK! It’s outside this year (less coviddy), and we managed to wrangle-up 19 vendors! WHAT? Truth, homey, it’ll be the greatest public event of the year, not even exaggerating. Also, if you show up around noon, you may be privy to the musical magic of a local group of singers who have been practicing songs to bring in the seasonal spirit… Help them find a name for their group! Watch for a naming contest at Moonrakings booth! Vendors this year, who have been working their buttocks off in order to provide LOCAL, GORGEOUS, HAND-MADE, ECO-CONSCIOUS thingies are:
