Move over, bunny–San Pedro Art Association is inviting everyone to an Easter egg hunt!

But the “treats” they’re offering, are even nicer than chocolate eggs and jelly beans.

On Saturday, March 16th, SPAA hosts their “Easter Craft Fair” on the corner of 25th and Western, in San Pedro.

Expect to find all kinds of incredible handcrafted treasures.

Mike Piper will be on hand, with his imaginative lamps.  These are crafted from cameras and musical instruments!   Needlepoint artist Ann Gray will offer a number of her stitchery creations, as well as dog gifts.  And don’t miss Dan Tregarthen’s  hand crafted wood items!

As if that isn’t enough to tempt you, you can also find handmade scented soaps (these have a tendency to jump into my shopping bag, how about you?), jewelry and fine art.

The latter have wowed me, multiple times, when I’ve stopped by to visit one of SPAA’s craft shows or exhibits, pre-pandemic.   My favorites, hands down, are the breathtaking seascapes–but expect all kinds of perspectives on the world from their talented artists.

And in every booth (while supplies last), they’re hiding Easter eggs.

Specifically, these will be paper Easter eggs, which you can exchange for eggs filled with goodies, while supplies last.

And SPAA (which, by the way, represents over 150 artists and gallery owners!) says you do not have to be a child, to participate in the egg hunt.

An almost-Springtime salute to them, for recognizing the “big kid” in all of us!   And if you’re going to be in the San Pedro area a week from this Saturday, consider coming down to support them.

They’re almost certain to make you “hoppy”.

 

San Pedro Art Association’s Easter Craft Fair happens Saturday, March 16th, from 10 am to 4 pm at the corner of 25th and Western, in San Pedro.  Admission is free.
