Nature Moves Indoors at Holiday Bazaar

December 6-7, Potter Center

            Music will fill the air and the scent of beeswax (candles), evergreens and baked goods will waft from the JCC Federer Rooms in Potter Center when Dahlem Center and Audubon team up for their annual Holiday Bazaar on December 6-7.  Hours for this year's Bazaar are noon to 4 p.m. on Friday, and 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturday.

            Crafts and gift shop merchandise target nature lovers and outdoor enthusiasts of all ages.  Handmade items are created and donated by volunteers with proceeds going to support educational programs and services of either the Audubon Society or the Dahlem Environmental Education Center.

            New this year is a variety of handmade garden accessories (garden & deck pots, butterfly puddle stones, decorative birdhouses, etc.).  Other featured sale items include: unique hand-crafted gifts and tree trims, fresh wreaths & door sprays, beeswax candles, bird-feeding supplies and seed, nature-related books, hand-knit items, animal puppets, jewelry, clothing and the famous Friends of Dahlem "bake sale."

            Bring the kids along on Saturday afternoon for a free make-n-take craft session.  Volunteers will be on hand between noon and 3 p.m. to help youngsters make their own snowmen to decorate a table or tree.  Shoppers can also join their voices with selected volunteers in holiday caroling at 1:45 p.m. on Friday and/or 11:45 a.m. and 1:45 p.m. on Saturday.
