At the Heritage Museum in Libby
October 30, 2019
The Heritage Museum’s Holiday Bazaar is Friday, Nov. 1st from 4 to 7 p.m. and Saturday, Nov. 2nd from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. This well-known event gives you an early start on Thanksgiving and Christmas shopping for handcrafted items and homemade edibles. The museum will be alive with music and chatter as shoppers search for those perfect gifts. There will be pottery, soaps, lotions, needlecrafts, woodcrafts, jewelry, photographs, note cards, calendars, Christmas decor, jellies, baked goods, leather crafts, and more. In addition to the handcrafted items, the Museum’s table will be filled with items and gift certificates that have been generously donated for this fundraiser by local merchants and friends of the museum. 100% of the money earned at this table goes directly to the museum.
The Kootenai Valley Quilt Guild will have a beautiful display of their quilts in the Tower Gallery. Don’t miss this kaleidoscope of color!
In the cookhouse located at the end of the parking lot, we’ll be serving homemade beef stew and potato soup on Friday night. Come straight from work and have dinner before you shop. Saturday we’ll be serving juicy burgers and hotdogs. Save room for dessert! There will be a selection of homemade pies and other treats both Friday and Saturday.
There will be a Silent Auction for a three-night stay at the Pend Oreille Shores Resort in Hope, Idaho.
