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 - with the By Hand Festival this weekend.

Coordinator Maria Reid says the event's a great opportunity to showcase local works.

Reid notes there will be 25 vendors this time, including "a lot of the old faithful" as well as new exhibitors.

Due to "circumstances" - including cost - the fall By Hand will follow the spring event by being one day only, running from 10 am to 3 pm tomorrow at the Michipicoten Memorial Community Centre - admission is by silver collection, to help cover the event's costs.
