The Christmas shopping season starts
on Friday, November 6th at MTCES!

The second Annual “Something Beautiful” Craft Fair will open its doors at 6:30 p.m., with offerings to help fairgoers prepare for the gift-giving season. The fundraiser has something for everyone in the family.

Delicious Kettle Corn will greet shoppers, who will also be able to partake in the incredibly edible offerings of Blue Chip Gourmet.  Area artisans producing one-of-a-kind gifts will be on hand, including the artwork and jewelry-making skills of MTCES teachers Corey McCarthy and Amanda Ocariz, respectively. Quality fare from 31 Purses, Usborne Books, Silpada, Arbonne, Tastefully Simple, Pampered Chef, Discovery Toys and Blue Chip Gourmet Cookie are among the vendors and items available. MTCES families can support their school and show their Volunteer pride by purchasing and ordering spiritwear, the new PTO cookbook,  and custom school wear from Educational Outfitters.

Families wanting to get a jump on the holiday season can not only shop, but also have their family portraits taken for Christmas cards by noted area photographer Barb Trimble on-site.

On Friday night, from 6:30 until 9:30, parents can enjoy wine and appetizers while their children enjoy a movie and snacks at our on-site childcare. Although Saturday shopping does not feature childcare, shoppers have seven hours to sample our offerings, from 10 a.m. until 5 p.m.

Admission is free, and parking is complimentary.
