The Toledo Craftsman’s Guild annual “Spring Fe

The Toledo Craftsman’s Guild annual “Spring Festival of Crafts” show is returning to the Premier Banquet Hall on Heatherdowns Boulevard across from the Stranahan Theatre. The two-day show will be held on Saturday, March 8 with hours from 9 to 4 and on Sunday, March 9 with hours from 11 to 4. This spring show is one that you will not want to miss as they celebrate their 50th anniversary in presenting quality craft shows to you!

Many new crafters and artists have been juried in with their unique handmade crafts and art items. It’s just the place where you can purchase those handcrafted SPRING items for decorating; and with Easter, Mother’s Day, graduations, and weddings coming later this year, you will find gifts for those celebrations too! Some of the items available may include brightly painted seasonal yard, home and floral decorations, solid wood items, all kinds of fabric items, metal work, candles, lotions and scents, jewelry, and lots more.

This year they will also be collecting food and household items to benefit the Toledo Seagate Food Bank.
