45th Annual A World A’fair
To the lady who met Bethany’s mother at the base hospital yesterday: we would love to know who you are, and we thank you for your kind words!
Sara attended the annual A World A’Fair international festival on May 19th, and had a blast! This is one of our favorite events, and we look forward to it every year.
Gem City Made Craft Show
We visited the Gem City Made craft show on May 5th, held at the Beavercreek Nazarene Church. There were a ton of vendors, with amazing handmade products from glasswork and woodwork to jewelry and bags, to pet accessories, wreaths, and crochet!
This year was only the second year for Gem City Made, but Beavercreek Nazarene has been holding a Holiday Bazaar every November for over 25 years! We’ll make sure to post details about the Holiday Bazaar before the event in early November.
During the event, we made sure to visit every booth, and we saw a few familiar faces, but met a lot of great new vendors.

The lure of hand crafted items is enough to get Dayton Unknown to come out. If it’s not enough for you, Crafty Con is also a fundraiser to raise money for Sideshow, a free celebration of the art and music scene in the Dayton area.
A lot of our favorite vendors from years past will be there again:
