PORT TOWNSEND — Those who have waited until now to buy gifts for the holidays can find the unusual and the unique at the 12th annual Procrastinators’ Holiday Fair this weekend, an organizer said.
The fair will be open today through Sunday at the Hastings Building, 839 Water St.
Hours are from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. today; from noon and 8 p.m. Saturday; and from noon to 4 p.m. Sunday.
“This is unique because it involves a group of 16 juried artists whose work is not available in galleries,” said organizer Melinda Bryden.
“This isn’t fine art. It’s mostly arts and crafts that you won’t be able to get anywhere else.”
The artists have produced a show for procrastinators to finish their holiday shopping.
Among the goods to be offered will be cards, fiber arts, jewelry, pottery, herbal products and fused glass, with prices ranging from $3 to $500.
Harp and Celtic music will be played.
The Procrastinators group is sponsoring three charities at the fair.
■ The Gathering Place — a nonprofit organization that provides enrichment activities for people with disabilities.
The facility, located at Skookum in Port Townsend, works with the disabled to offer job training and work experience in the community.
The group will present calendars and crafts.
■ The Community Bowl Project — Previously painted bowls will be sold with proceeds going to support the Port Townsend Food Bank.
■ Scholarship Wreaths — The wreaths, which will cost between $35 and $55, will fund scholarships for graduating Port Townsend High School students headed to college.
