'Tis the Season

The annual crafts bazaar was a chance show off staff talent and creativity

Sonia Fernandez

…For crafts, creativity and cheer, as the annual Winter Warmer bazaar popped up in front of Campbell Hall on Friday to show off the secret and not-so-secret talents of staff members who took the time to make and display their creations for sale. Handcrafted jewelry shared space with needlework; glass ornaments competed for attention with decorative plants; fabric creations displayed across the aisle from paintings and photography. Visitors browsed through displays and did some holiday shopping while sipping hot chocolate and munching on baked treats.

Associated Students collected food donations for the A.S. Foodbank, in exchange for entries to win prizes in the Winter Warmer drawing.

The annual Winter Warmer is hosted by Staff Assembly, the Chancellors’ Staff Advisory Council, the Professional Women’s Association and the Academic Business Officers Group.
