It's Crunch Time!

The fall season is always the busiest for artists and crafters, and this year is no exception. For the Laurel Highlands Artisans, not only are we individually busy with many festivals and shows at this time of year, but we are also sponsoring our very own show as a group in a few weeks. So as exciting as it is, it is definitely crunch time!

Some wonderful things have happened over the past few months within our group. With the start of a basic website, we have been able to spread the word a little better about who we are and what we do. Our group is growing and we have a variety of talented artists that are willing to share so much great information in order for us to grow our businesses. We are upgrading our website and hope to share what we do in a way that is easier for the public to view.

And then there is the Handmade Holiday Show. On December 4th from Noon - 4pm we are sponsoring a show of such talented vendors, some of whom belong to the group and many more in which we admire their work. The Center for Student Creativity in Latrobe, PA will be full of local artists with quality handmade goods. And of course, to share our successes at this time of year, each vendor will be donating an item toward a Chinese auction in which all the proceeds will benefit the Salvation Army's Red Kettle Campaign. So mark your calendars and we'll see you there!
