Melrose Arts & Crafts Society Announces Annual Exhibit and Sale

  The Melrose Arts & Crafts Society members have been contributing handmade items to the Annual Exhibit and Sale that will be held on November 6 from 9 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. at First Congregational Church (121 West Foster St. in Melrose). On exhibit will be crocheted, knitted and quilted items along with art and many other types of crafts. Some of the Society’s talented members will be demonstrating various crafts, such as jewelry-making. Displays of paintings, Swedish weaving and other crafts will be scattered around the space. If you are interested in purchasing these handcrafted works, there will be a sales table with many items available for purchase.

  For those of you interested in bargains, there will be a room of new and gently used “treasures” for sale. There will also be some items to be raffled.

  Admission is free and open to the public, with free parking, and the church is wheelchair accessible. Don’t miss this fun event!
