Get started on your holiday shopping by browsing through four floors with more than 120 booths offering a wide variety of arts and crafts. The craft show, held in the Roger T. Sermon Community Center, 201 N. Dodgion Ave., features both local and regional vendors, all selling original wares.

Show hours are 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Friday, November 20 and 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Saturday, November 21. There is no admission fee for shoppers. A food booth is offered by City Theatre of Independence as a fund raiser for their organization.

A free shuttle service will be available for shoppers. To catch the shuttle, park in the lot on the northwest corner of Truman Road and Main Street. The shuttle will pick up shoppers on the hour and half hour from 10 a.m. – 7: 30 p.m. on Friday and 10 a.m. – 6: 30 p.m. on Saturday. The Sermon Center is located on the southeast corner of Truman and Noland Roads in Independence.

Just up the street on Main, is Scandinavia Place, the fabulous shop that carries our jewelry! I just stocked it with all new bracelets, crystal necklaces, more earrings and some new dichroic glass pendants. Don't forget to check it out while you are over that way!
