Our fourth annual Arts and Crafts Fair is just three months away! Just one month after mailing out applications, we have already filled all but two of the booth spaces!!  We must be getting a good reputation!!

Among the craft artists, we will again feature several St. Philip’s members: Val Jackson, Ying Liang and Donna Seelbach, along with several folks who have returned for the 4^th year.

This event has been an excellent fund raiser for St. Philip’s. We not only receive a booth fee and 15% of the crafter’s proceeds, but proceeds from our very popular Bake Sale, (pre-ordered) Christmas Wreaths and Raffle have made the Craft Fair very successful.

We will also continue our tradition of displaying quilts from St. Philip’s members and friends in the Sanctuary and breezeway. We have had requests in the past for quilts to purchase, so if you have a quilt you would like to sell, please contact Julie Levy or Karen Krestensen.

The event would not happen at all without the members of St. Philip’s! We depend on you for a few hours of your time to help before, during or after the event. As we get closer to the event, we will have sign ups for help, so be sure to mark the date on your calendar!

 

 

Volunteer Jobs will be:

 

• Work in a booth (wreath sales, bake sale, etc.)                                             • Donate an item for the Raffle

• Provide item(s) for the Bake Sale                                                                • Lend a quilt for the day to be displayed

• Checkout/Ticket Sales table                                                                        • Help with distributing posters, signs

• Provide a quilt to sell (donate or keep the profits less 15%  to St. Philip’s).

Any questions, please give us a call.

Donating Flowers

Please remember that if you are not providing your own flowers, there is a charge of $35 to have Perry’s Floral Shop make up the flowers for you. The church does not cover the cost of the flowers.

Please submit your check to the Altar Guild two weeks before the flowers need to be ordered.

If you are providing your own flowers, please let Mardi in the office know, so that she does not order the flowers from Perry’s.

Thank you for your cooperation.
