DALLAS, Pa. — Penn State Wilkes-Barre will host a popular community craft show coordinated by Arts at Hayfield on Nov. 3.

The 34th annual Arts at Hayfield Homespun Holiday Craft Show will be held from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. in the Athletic Building and Student Commons Building. More than 100 crafters are scheduled to display and market their crafts, artwork, jewelry and more.

There is a suggested donation of $2 per person at the door. Children under 18 and Penn State students with campus IDs are free.

Since the organization’s founding in 1984, the members of Arts at Hayfield have pursued a mission of promoting the arts for all members of the community to experience and enjoy. The nonprofit organization strives to provide opportunities for local performers, musicians, crafters, artists and artisans and continues to form networks of individuals interested in helping promote the arts.

Arts at Hayfield regularly donates to public media resources and arts organizations such as WVIA, FM Kirby Center, NEPA Chamber Music Society, Back Mountain Memorial Library and the Penn State Wilkes-Barre Friedman Art Gallery, in addition to awarding annual scholarships to local Penn State Wilkes-Barre students who express interest in the arts.
