OHSWEKEN – Crafts, treats, connecting, networking — this year’s ILA Christmas Bazaar had it all. Community members and visitors enjoyed one of the area’s largest Christmas bazaars in the area last weekend.
The ILA Christmas Bazaar is a great opportunity for beaders and several other skilled craftspeople and tradespeople to showcase their skills.

There were more than one hundred vendors at the Iroquois Lacrosse Arena last Saturday and Sunday; selling crafts, food, beadwork, Christmas décor and more.
“There’s something here for everyone,” said one of the event visitors. “Some of the artists here are painting while the event is going on and it’s really cool to watch.”
The event was free and brought out visitors not only from Six Nations but several surrounding communities and cities.
