Herbst Pavilion at Fort Mason Center, San Francisco


Now in it’s 30th year, The Women’s Building Celebration of Craftswomen offers a unique opportunity to find gorgeous, one-of-a-kind holiday gifts, fine crafts, and contemporary art all by women. The show features the work of 300 female artists - 150 different artists each weekend.

 

The Celebration of Craftswomen will be held from 10-5 on two weekends: Nov. 29-30 & Dec. 6-7, 2007. Admission is $8 for adults, $6 for seniors and students, and free for children under 12. A two-day pass that can be used any two of the four days is $14.

 

The Fort Mason Herbst Pavilion is located at Buchanan Street and Marina Blvd. Parking with shuttle service is available at Marina Middle School, on Bay Street between Buchanan Street and Webster Street.

 

This event benefits The Women’s Building, a multi-cultural community center where women and girls achieve self-sufficiency and pursue their dreams. Monies raised though the raffle, admission fees, and booth fees go to the organization. Programs offered by The Women’s Building include a free bilingual Spanish/English information and referral service, educational support for low-income adults, financial counseling, and community events that promote arts, culture, and discussion. The first women-owned community center in the U.S., the Women’s Building houses ten diverse community groups and has helped launch more than 160 women’s programs and initiatives in San Francisco.
