Evoke the Christmas Spirit with a visit to a simpler time, when gifts were well made and from the heart; and giving meant more than receiving.

The ever-popular Circle Craft Christmas Market has delighted Vancouverites and visitors alike with its unique and nifty wares since 1972.

Now in it’s 37th year, the Christmas Fair features shopping adventures from traditional crafting to contemporary designs, brought to you by artisans from across British Columbia.

This year’s exhibition is more than just your Grandmother’s craft fair, with wood-turning demonstrations, interactive hot glass shows and a student art showcase. The entertainment stage will feature an impressive line-up of talent from organizations across the Lower Mainland including Arts Umbrella Dance Company, Donna Fishwick Piano Ensemble, Douglas Ballet, The Festival Ballet Company, South Fraser Community Band, just to name a few.

Don’t forget to drop by The Sharing Tree, where a $2 donation gives you the chance to escape on a surprise destination vacation valued at $1,500. Even if you don’t get to go have fun in the sun you will be filled with warm fuzzies knowing that you helped support many wonderful local charities, The Vancouver Sun Children’s Fund; the Salvation Army and The Peak and JRFM’s charity, Basics for Babies.

If you are in the market for unique, original gifts for those on your Christmas shopping list (or even yourself!), you will be sure to find them at the 37th Circle Craft Christmas Market.
