Notes from Haley Studio

Stark Realty Craft Show

TENTH ANNUAL HOLIDAY SALE FEATURING LOCAL ARTISTS

Saturday, December 6, 2014 – 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.

The Stark Realty Building, corner of High Point and Old Sauk Roads, Madison

(Exit West Beltline at Old Sauk then go one block east or take Old Sauk west to High Point — enter off High Point)

I’ll be there! Note: the flyer indicates check and cash only, but I’ll be able to take credit cards with Square. I’m guessing several other vendors will have that capability too.
