AUBURN/FULTON – Due to the COVID-19 worldwide pandemic, The Cayuga County Community College Foundation, in consultation with Cayuga Community College, has cancelled the 47th Annual Cayuga County Community College Craft Fair, scheduled for December 5 and 6 of this year.
The College Foundation has been operating the Craft Fair, on behalf of the College for the last three years and notified vendors of the cancellation at the end of August. Foundation Executive Director Guy Thomas Cosentino said, “We know this is an important event in our community and like the many crafters we notified recently, we are disappointed that we cannot hold this event that attracts thousands of people annually and also is a way for our students to do community service and promote their clubs and activities.”
Cayuga Community College President Brian Durant said, “The College must consider the best interest of all stakeholders that would be involved in this year’s show, including, first and foremost, our Community College students and staff and the public that would attend.”
This holiday-themed event has been a popular local tradition for many years, and typically hosts over 150 vendors.
A decision regarding next year’s Craft Fair will be made at the end of the Spring Semester.
