Rustic Vintage Fair Will Showcase More Than 150 Vendors

NEW LENOX, IL — The Rustic Vintage Fair is set to take place at 4H Field, 801 E. Francis Road in New Lenox, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. July 31. The fair will feature arts and crafts, as well as food and entertainment, from more than 150 vendors from across the area, according to co-organizer Any Dudeck, of Manhattan. The fair is also co-organized by Gina Garofalo, of Mokena.

Admission is $2. Those ages 12 and under are free. Half of all admission proceeds will be donated to New Lenox Youth Football Association, which uses 4H Field as its home field, Dudeck said.

The donation to a local organization in need is in line with Dudeck's and Garofalo's overall mission to "give crafters and vendors the best possible opportunity to profit from their hard work, as well as inform the public about the incredible small business shopping opportunity in their area," according to a post on the Rustic Vintage Fair Facebook page.

As an added incentive, the first 100 visitors will receive a free gift, Dudeck said.
