Seventy-five vendors will offer a selection of handmade artisan gifts at the 19th annual Papoose Club Holiday Bazaar this weekend in Ketchum.
The bazaar will run from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 7, and 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Sunday, Dec. 8, at Hemingway STEAM School.
Artists will offer a selection of gift items, including pottery, photography, woodwork, knitted items, candles, clothing and more.
Soups from Perry’s will be available for sale, along with dozens of homemade holiday cookies. There also will be a raffle and door prizes.
The bazaar is one of a couple big fundraisers for the Papoose Club, which donates gifts of money to organizations supporting valley youth. Club members recently helped fund a pioneer program that will teach elementary school children to bike.
“All the proceeds from this event go right back to the community,” said Kaz Thea, who is overseeing the volunteers.
