1st Annual Holiday Book & Craft Fair Set for December 8
Holiday Book & Craft Fair was held at St. John's Cathedral in Albuquerque, Saturday, December 8, 2007. This was a chance to get your books, crafts, or both in the hands of Christmas shoppers at an unheard of price. The fair was open to the public from 10am to 4pm and there was no charge to come and shop. There was free and ample parking and the atmosphere was good for families or those who wanted to get the perfect gift.
