Arts, crafts fair returns to square By GINA KINSLOW Glasgow Daily Times GLASGOW — Glasgow Business and Professional Women Club’s annual Arts, Crafts and Gift Show is set to get under way Saturday featuring close to 100 booths offering a wide variety of items.
“There will be homemade crafts, candles, primitives, paintings, baskets, woodcrafts, stitchery, purses, handbags, hats and scarves,” said Karin Baldwin-Carroll, event co-chair. “There’s different types of skincare booths. There’s painted furniture, sewn items, crocheted items, jewelry and then there’s lots of food.” Four to five food vendors will be on hand selling lemonade, ice cream, funnel cakes, Hawaiian Ice and barbecue, she said. Exhibitors come from all across the state, as well as Tennessee. This year marks the 30th anniversary for the Glasgow BP&W’s Arts, Crafts and Gift Show, which is one of two fundraisers the organization does each year. Proceeds from the event go to fund scholarships for area college students. The club has a goal of raising $3,500, said Dawn Boyter, event co-chair. How many scholarships are awarded, she said, depends on how much money is raised. “Normally it’s two scholarships that are given,” she said. The organization’s other fundraiser is its annual Bean Soup, which is set for Nov. 7 at the Columbia Avenue Church of Christ. New to the Arts, Crafts and Gift Show this year are mums and pumpkins, which Boyter said were not available at the event last year. “There is a few more activities for the kids. There’s going to be sand art, air brushed tattoos and a general store with candy for the kids,” she said. The event will take place on Glasgow’s Public Square from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. In the event of rain, it will be at Barren County High School.
