Celebration of Craftswomen

This year, do your holiday shopping and support a good cause at the same time.  The Women's Building will sponsor (and benefit by) the 30th annual Celebration of Women, a fine arts and crafts retail fair.  The fair's goal is to introduce San Franciscans to women fine artisans while raising money for The Women's Building.  It is the largest women-centered craft fair in the nation.  The Women's Building is a full-service community center serving women and girls in San Francisco.  Items for sale will include ceramics, glass, wood and metal sculptures, jewelry, clothing, furniture, home accessories, photography and watercolor and oil paintings.   

The Celebration of Craftswomen will be held on Friday and Saturday, November 29 and 30 as well as the next Friday and Saturday, December 6 and 7, 2008, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.  The event will be held at the Herbst Pavilion, Fort Mason Center.
