the Skeena Mall seems to
have become an _ estab-

residents in the Terrace
area,

Gail Currie, Skeena

Mall manager, said the
fair was most successful.
“We had over 50 spots
available, which gives a
wide selection of home-

made crafts to the public.

Over the years it has

become very successful.
People are already book-

ing for next year.’’ Quite
often, said Currie, we are
booked solid by the montn
of August, and we nor-
mally have had to turn
people away.

The fair is a non-profit
organization, Currie said.
The fee is $30 for three

days which includes chairs.

and a table. ‘‘It’s really
not a bad price since most
malls charge $200 and
up.’’ She said, “It’s a
great opportunity for peo-
ple to make money with
their homemade crafts,
and it’s our way to say
thank you for your
patronage.”’

Julie Ross crafted this beautifu! dog and Cabbage Patch doil.
Ross sald this was her third time participating in the arts and
crafts falr sponsored by Skeana Mall.

Rita Pucci visited the Arts and Crafts sale held at Skeena :
Mall. She said she returns every year to see the homemade
crafts selactions.
