The Cataldo Mission is hosting the Historic Skills Fair for the 30th straight year on Saturday and Sunday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
The fair at the Old Mission State park will take the attendees back through time to an era when a person did more with their hands than just send text messages.
Dressed in the proper garb from the 1800s, participants will demonstrate historic skills such as blacksmithing, weaving, silversmithing, quilting, spinning, flint knapping, basket making, leatherwork and bead work among others.
The price to enter is $5 per vehicle.
