Updated September 2nd
Cumberland County Fair
We had several vendors win several ribbons. Here are a few that are displayed n FACS. You should come in and see their gorgeous talent in person.
To Meet the Artists & Crafters:
Every month we hold an event which is free to the in-house vendors called Meet the Artisans. This event is held every 2nd Saturday (with a few exceptions) of every month. The time will be from 10:00 am until approximately 5 pm, based on individual artisans.
This is like an outdoor craft sale. The artisans that setup in the yard around the house will differ each month based on their availability. They will bring new items that are not in store, and some may even demonstrate their talents. We will often have free refreshments and sometimes the Hunting for Geodes corner will be open.
In addition to local artisans, we welcome outside vendors, too. A 10’x10′ Tent Space is $30 and a 6′ or 8′ Table space is $20. These spaces must be prepaid and registered by calling 931-210-5599, registering and prepaying by clicking here, or by stopping in the FACS store.
DOWNTOWN CRAFT FAIR:
Every month we hold another craft fair for any and all vendors every 4th Saturday of every month with the exception of November and December 2024 which will be on the 3rd Saturday. The time will be from 10:00 am until 5 pm.
This is an outdoor craft sale. We will often have food trucks and animal rescue organizations, and sometimes the Hunting for Geodes corner will be open, too. We welcome outside vendors at this craft fair. A 10’x10′ Tent Space is $30 and a 6′ or 8′ Table space is $20. These spaces must be prepaid and registered by calling 931-210-5599, registering and prepaying by clicking here, or by stopping in the FACS store.
For Class Interest:
Please let us know by emailing FACS.STORE@GMAIL.COM if you have a special class request. We will try to find a qualified instructor for your idea.
Be sure to check out our Class Schedule page to register and pre-pay for the classes which have begun. We will continue to add new class content and instructors.
Check out the scheduled event for the Bible Journaling Group. This was a very popular session last year, and Karen Harmening has added even more projects each month. This gathering is held on the 1st Friday of every month with the exception of a few changes.
Another new event has been established by Brenda Preuss. It is called Product Play Day and is every 4th Wednesday of each month when scheduled. Brenda will be bringing her personal stash those months featuring a particular product or tool. This is not a class as normally expected. There may be some instruction on how to use the products, but nothing real specific. There will be hundreds of the particular item each month for the students to use. For instance, the first class had Dies as the Product for play. There were hundreds of dies and several manual and electric die-cutting machines to use. There were some cardstock scraps provided, but in order to actually create cards at this event, the students were asked to bring their own supplies. Of course, making cards used up time that took away from the fun of having a huge variety of dies to use. It is also possible that Brenda might sell some of the product at a greatly reduced price. If you fall in love with something, be sure to ask her.
A list of all scheduled classes and events is available through email. Send a request to FACS.STORE@GMAIL.COM if you would like to receive this email list.
