On Saturday February 11 Park Slope Collegiate will be holding a pre-Valentine's Day craft fair. As always, we would love to have you involved as an artist-vendor. We still have a few spots remaining. If you are interested in participating, please let us know as soon as possible so we can reserve a spot for you. As you know, the weather is quite unpredictable, so we are keeping open the possibility of outside spots, depending on the conditions. But even if it's cold outside, we have the warmth of the John Jay campus. Set-up begins at 8:30 am and we expect buyers to start coming by by 9:30 am. Vending ends at 5:00 pm. As always, any proceeds from this event are used to help students at our school.

Take Care,
