The annual show and sale event was not held last year, due to COVID-19 restrictions.

There will be approximately 20 local artisans taking part, showcasing and selling creations like gourd art, pottery, paintings, wood turning, jewellery, woven items, silk scarves, knitted socks, felting and paper art.

Ceramics artist Mary Sullivan has been part of the show for the past four years. She makes beautiful hand made functional pieces with stoneware clay. Her pieces feature whimsical characters designed to make you smile. She says that the excellent quality of the art that is for sale at the Marshland Centre makes this event very special.

“The show has a limit on how much of one type of art is shown and that makes for a much more varied event,” she said. “It is in a beautiful location and it is laid out like a gallery with everyone’s work complementing each other’s throughout the room.”

Christmas at the Marshland Centre will be held at the Marshland Centre at 64 Hague Blvd. in Lakefield and will be open from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Nov. 13 and 14.

Due to COVID masks must be worn at all times and there will be restrictions on the number of people allowed inside to allow for social distancing.
