Madison Library to Host Creator Fair Featuring Local Artists, Door Prizes

The Madison Public Library will host a Creator Fair on Sunday, Nov. 9 from 2 to 4 p.m. The fair gives local authors, artists, photographers, and crafters a chance to showcase their creative products while giving the public a chance to browse and buy locally crafted items.

The featured creative artists include: authors Bill Powers and Ann Frommer; fine artists Alice Roche, Anne Picker, and Allison Gadzik; musician Steve Gabe; glass artist Laura Inman; jewelry artists Katy McCabe and Barbara Neale; collage artist Karen Coccari Bella; and crafters Carol Gunst, Robin Wells and Ellie Alpaugh. Additional offerings: prints, notecards, and stained glass by artist Susan Gepford; posters and trading cards by Leslie Wallant; items made from honeycombs and honey by Valerie Tomaro.

Each artist/author has generously donated one item for a door prize. There will be giveaways every 15 minutes; winners must be present in order to receive the prize. Please note that some vendors only accept cash and/or checks.

“Please join the library in supporting local artists and authors while getting a head start on holiday shopping,” Nancy Admaczyk of the Madison Public Library said. “This event has free admission and is open to the public.”
