Playwrights Craft Fair Benefits City Harvest

Playwrights Horizons will host its second annual Holiday Craft Fair on Tuesday, Dec. 14 from 1 to 4 pm in Playwrights Horizons’ festively made-over Ford Motor Company Lobby (416 West 42nd St. Featuring works created by PH’s very own staff, the crafts for sale will include jewelry, knitwear, handmade greeting cards, homemade jam and much more!

Serious holiday shoppers and curious browsers alike will enjoy complimentary refreshments and, of course, their favorite music from the festive season. Please note: cash payments only.

In keeping with the spirit of the holiday season, a portion of the proceeds will be donated to charity. Additionally, shoppers are encouraged to bring a canned good for a food drive to benefit City Harvest. City Harvest is New York City’s only food rescue program. The organization helps feed more than 260,000 people each week serves more than 600 community programs annually. Each year, Playwrights Horizons’ staff, artists and audiences help City Harvest by holding a Holiday Food Drive. Last year, the company donated 240 pounds of food, a Playwrights Horizons record.
