Press ReleaseICPL craft bazaar and book sale Dec. 6


Just in time for the holidays, the Iowa City Public Library will host the Third Annual Arts & Crafts Bazaar from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. in meeting rooms A, B and C at the Library, 123 S. Linn St.

Thanks to the generous donations of local artists and crafters, shoppers will find a wide selection of unique gifts from quilts and knitted items to jewelry, holiday ornaments, and more. The Library also will have Iowa City Public Library T-shirts for sale for $16 each, and Arts & Crafts Bazaar tote bags for $10.

For every $10 spent at the bazaar, shoppers receive an entry for amazing door prizes. Winners do not need to be present to win.

The Book End’s winter book sale will occur at the same time in the hallway just outside of Meeting Room A. The book sale will feature bargain prices on everything from romance novels to cookbooks. Anyone who makes a purchase at the book sale will receive a coupon for a unique offer at The Book End, which is located on the Library’s second floor.

Proceeds from both the arts and craft bazaar and the book sale benefit the Iowa City Public Library Friends Foundation, which supports the Summer Reading Program and other Library programs and collections.

For more information, please call the Library at (319) 356-5200.
