The Elverhoj Museum of History and Art is holding its annual artisan craft fair on Nov. 7 from 3 to 6 p.m. and Nov. 8 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. More than 20 vendors and local businesses are set to sell ceramics, jewelry, home goods, clothing, and more. Admission to the event is free, and beverages will be available for sale.
“This is an excellent chance to begin your holiday shopping and support local artists and crafters,” the museum’s executive director, Sandie Mullin, said in press materials. “Not only can visitors shop, but they can also explore and enjoy all that the museum has to offer about Solvang’s history and heritage.”
