Alameda Holiday Boutique

About this event

A long-running, volunteer-run juried holiday craft fair held over one weekend in the Albert H. DeWitt Officers' Club at Alameda Point. Vendors must make what they sell, and the selection is curated by category, quality and originality, with caps on crowded categories. Alongside makers, artists and bakers there are community groups and a food vendor, and proceeds support a recreation program for teens and adults with developmental disabilities. Shoppers are mostly Alamedans plus visitors from across the East Bay and San Francisco.
