Wawa's Fall By Hand Festival Arrives

Wawa residents are getting a chance to see the works of many local artisans - and get an early start on Christmas shopping - at the By Hand Festival this weekend.

Coordinator Maria Reid reminds the event is "first and foremost a craft show".

Reid says first time attendees will be surprised by the quality and variety - with 26 exhibitors registered - calling it "an experience you don't want to miss".

Admission is by silver collection, to cover the costs of holding the event.

The By Hand Festival will be held at the Michipicoten Memorial Community Centre from 6 pm to 9 pm tonight, and 10 am to 3 pm tomorrow.
