Every November, Bonner General Hospital rings in the holiday season early with its annual Santa’s Workshop arts and crafts fair.
You won’t want to miss this chance to get into the holiday spirit at this charming event, set for Friday, Nov. 5, from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. in the Brown House at the hospital.
Sponsored by Bonner General Hospital’s auxiliary, this year’s arts and crafts fair will feature many different vendors displaying an array of goodies. In addition to a wide selection of gifts, the auxiliary will have a variety of yummy baked goods available for purchase.
This is a perfect opportunity to get a jump-start on your holiday shopping and meet the artists who create the items for sale, all while supporting your not-for-profit community hospital and its wonderful auxiliary volunteers.
All proceeds will support the Bonner General Hospital Auxiliary as they help to make the hospital experience a more comfortable and pleasant one for our patients and their families.
Lynda Metz is the Director of Community Development at Bonner General Hospital.
