Park district notes for Late November to Mid December
From Marcia Greenslate, Executive Director

[November 20, 2014]  Pride of the Prairie - The 20th Annual Pride of the Prairie Folk Art and Craft Show is just around the corner. Hosted at the park district this juried show features some of the area’s finest artisans and craftsmen. Several new vendors have been added to this year’s event. The vendors were chosen for the quality and design of their work.

The event features primitives, folk art, watercolors, quilts, iron sculptures, fiber art, country collectibles, jewelry, paper crafts, rag rugs, floral arrangements and much more. This is an excellent source for personal and unique gifts for the upcoming holiday season. Join us Saturday, November 29th from 8:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.
