An arts and crafts event has been added to the Dec. 12 Christmas activities in the downtown Milano area. The Milano Christmas Bazaar is looking for vendors to sell between 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. on the same day as the city’s Christmas parade.
The fees for the arts and crafts or food concession booths are $20 each for 10-feet by 10-feet space. The booths will be set up outside and no electricity will be available. To get a form to sign up, contact 979-219- 2138 or email mamasbecraftin@yahoo.com.
Deadline to turn vendor applications is Dec. 9. Vendor will start being notified of booth space starting Dec. 5. Booth spaces are limited.
Vendors should be set up ready to sale by 9 a.m. on Bazaar day.
PARADE CHANGES—The Milano city council has made a couple of changes to the annual Christmas parade, but it is still set for 10 a.m. Dec. 12.
This year’s event won’t have any theme or divisions, or plaques given out. It will be an opportunity to have a wonderful time spreading Christmas cheer in the community.
So build your float, decorate your vehicle, dress up your pet and help spread the spirit of Christmas and goodwill toward all—while social distancing, of course.
Line up starts at 9 a.m. at the football field parking lot and will wind its way through to the downtown area.
