St. James' Annual Fair
After three long years with no fair due to the pandemic, we are excited to announce that the 95th Annual St. James Fair will take place this summer, July 22, 2023!
The annual St. James fair is the highlight of the summer for many who live in, or visit Woodstock. Held every summer since the 1920s, the St. James Fair is a time honored Woodstock tradition. The fair provides excellent shopping opportunities with bargains on antiques, art, linens, knick-knacks, toys, books and a large selection of white elephant items. With crowds of shoppers on the green, live music on the steps of the church and yummy culinary delights, the fair has the feel of a festival.
After months of planning, almost every member of St. James - as well as friends of the parish, near and far - come together to work on the fair. For three weeks prior, volunteers work together to sort, price, and finally sell the vast array of donated goods that we receive. The one-day sale begins with the ringing of the church bell and provides bargains galore.
All proceeds from our annual fair help those in need through out the Vermont and New Hampshire area.
