The Hickman County Arts & Crafts Guild will be hosting the 8th Keg County Arts & Crafts Fair rain or shine this Saturday, May 9 from 9 a.m.-4 p.m. on the Centerville Courthouse Lawn. Dozens of artisans from Hickman County and the surrounding areas will be onsite selling their handmade/handcrafted items.
This is the perfect day to find a special one-of-a-kind gift for the special lady for Mother’s Day. Maybe you need a gift for the graduate or for the teacher “that got you there”. Of course, June is right around the corner, which is often full of weddings, anniversaries, and birthdays! We have vendors selling a variety of woodworks, painted gourds, candles & jewelry. There will be wreaths, soaps, lotions, book art and much more.
Food vendors will be serving their best that day to curb that shopping appetite including Cajun
entrées, fish, BBQ, funnel cakes and much more!
The event also promises a great variety of live musical performances.
