The following weekend, the Rusty River Barn will hold the Third Annual Hartland Holiday Bazaar. The event will take place from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 22, and from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Sunday, Nov. 23. The community is invited to enjoy shopping for a minimal entrance fee of $5 per person. It is free for those 16 and under and for those attending a class during the event.
The bazaar will feature two buildings and a large tent with handcrafted vendors. A 'perfect place to get unique Christmas gifts,' Dana Hart, the host of the event, said.
Santa will also be visiting the bazaar, and kids will have an opportunity to have photos with him between 12 - 2 p.m.
Adding to the excitement, bazaar guests will have the chance to win a $100 Visa gift card if they visit the first annual Mount Vernon Winter Craft Market at the Energy Fieldhouse in Mount Vernon. To participate in this special promotion, attendees must get a stamp card at their first stop, either the Bazaar or the Fieldhouse, and submit it at their second stop.
"We have a fun shop hop planned between two amazing makers markets! Attending both gets you entered into a drawing for a $100 visa gift card! (Attending the Hartland Bazaar Saturday OR Sunday validates your entry as long as you have the proper stamp card.)," Hart announced.
