The Nipomo Chamber of Commerce is getting into the spirit of the season with its annual Holiday Craft and Gift Boutique, taking place on Nov. 21.
Â
The boutique brings together more than 40 vendors in the home-based arts and crafts
communities of Nipomo, Santa Maria, and the Five Cities.
Â
The big jolly man will make a special appearance at Santa’s Workshop, put on by the Greater Nipomo Kiwanis Club. Lunch will be provided by the Lions Club of Nipomo, and the Nipomo 4-H Club will hold a bake sale. The Quiet Knights will perform holiday music from 1 to 3 p.m. Volunteers from the Nipomo Food Bank will also be on hand to accept cash and food donations to help the needy.
Â
The boutique runs from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the Edwards Barn, located at 1095 Pomeroy Road. Admission is free.
