The holiday craft fairs are starting early in 2021. We love browsing the vendor’s stalls, talking to the artisans, and discovering magical creations that demand to be taken home. While 2020 brought us a slew of virtual craft fairs, we are thrilled to see the return to in-person craft fairs for 2021.
If we have missed an event please send an email to vancouver@familyfuncanada.com and we will get our list updated faster than a snowflake melts.
