On Saturday, Nov. 14, from 9:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., the Kutztown Area Historical Society will be hosting its annual Holiday Festival in the 1892 Public School Building.

According to Karen DeLong, president of KAHS, the Holiday Festival is the society’s major fundraiser event for the year. The building is decorated for Christmas and will host 22 local vendors selling handmade goods including jewelry, pottery, greeting cards, knitwear, candles and more. 

In addition, visitors are able to purchase Christmas cookies baked by society members, enter a raffle with items donated by vendors and view HO trains on display that will be running all day. 

A cafe serving homemade meals will also be available for visitors to enjoy. 

“The Holiday Festival always brings out a large crowd and gets everyone into the holiday spirit,” DeLong said. 

Admission to the event is free. For more information, contact info@kutztownhistory.org.
