A Christmas Bazaar and Craft Show featuring local artists will be held at Paradise Valley United Methodist Church, 4455 E. Lincoln Dr., 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 18.

More than 20 artists and crafters offering a wide range of products — jewelry, accessories, toys, games, hand-crafted items, specialty food products, religious and inspirational gifts — will be available at this festive holiday event. Admission is free and open to the public. 

“The Christmas Bazaar is a perfect opportunity for the vendors who supply our gift shop throughout the year to showcase their products at a booth all their own,” Meg Wolfe, manager of Serendipities Gift Shop, said in a press release. “We invite everyone to come and shop the broad array of giftable items by the many talented artists and vendors.”    

A portion of each purchase will be donated to three local charities: UMOM, a provider of shelter, housing and services for people experiencing homelessness; P.E.O., a philanthropic organization that offers educational support to women; and Audrey’s Angels, an organization that performs live music and interactive programs for elderly and disabled adults. 

Serendipities Gift Shop is located on the campus of Paradise Valley United Methodist Church. Profits from gift shop sales support the missions of the church and local charities. Serendipities focus on items that are made in the United States, fair trade products, sustainably produced or created by artists and artisans.
