SCHA Holiday Craft Bazaar returns to Schoharie

SCHOHARIE — The 48th annual Holiday Craft Bazaar kicks off on Friday, Nov. 21, in the Creamery Building at 143 Depot Lane in Schoharie.

Just in time for the holiday season, the three-day craft extravaganza runs from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Friday, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday, and 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Sunday, Nov. 21-23. Admission is free, but donations are cheerfully accepted.

Dozens of local crafters will be selling their creations at the show, which is a fundraiser for the nonprofit Schoharie Colonial Heritage Association (SCHA). Two floors of the Creamery Building will be packed with vendors, some of whom have been participating for decades.

The juried craft show highlights countless unique and handcrafted items, which will be featured in prize baskets donated by vendors for daily raffles. There’s also a country kitchen with food available for purchase, and homemade baked goods for sale.

SCHA uses money raised at the Holiday Craft Bazaar, as well as the annual Model Train Show and the Antiques in Schoharie events in the spring and fall, to operate the 1743 Palatine House Museum (the oldest building in Schoharie County), the Schoharie Valley Railroad Museum, and the Children’s Summer Theater Program.
