BRUNSWICK – St. Paul’s Episcopal Church will hold its 81st annual Christmas Fair on Saturday, Dec. 2 from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. at 27 Pleasant St. in Brunswick . All proceeds support charitable programs in the Greater Brunswick area and globally.

Holiday shoppers can browse several rooms full of items, including artwork and handicrafts by local artisans, handmade hats and scarves, clothing for 18-inch dolls, baked goods, jams and jellies, fresh wreaths and other Christmas decorations. There will also be religious items, books, Rada cutlery and more. Bargain hunters can find vintage items, jewelry, collectibles and gently used household wares in the “Treasures” room.

For the second year, St. Paul’s will also hold a silent auction. Shoppers can bid on gift certificates to Chilton Furniture, Sunray Animal Clinic and The Times Record, a fly fishing rod, reel, line, flies and net and Maine State Music Theater tickets, among other items.

There will be a Children’s Activity table, plus Santa and his helpers will be on site. And chowder, taco salad, sandwiches, coffee and desserts will be available at the Christmas Café.

The Christmas Fair is St. Paul’s largest charitable fundraiser. Over the past six years, the community’s support of the fair has allowed St. Paul’s to donate more than $100,000 to programs such as Mid Coast Hunger Prevention, Tedford Housing, Oasis Free Clinics and Brunswick Area Student Aid Fund.

Payment can be made by cash, check or credit card.
