Cynthia Webb displays some of the handcrafted jewelry she will offer for sale in the local artisans market at the Nov. 12 Gowensville Fall Festival. Other craftspeople will offer wooden bowls and benches, hemp and glass-fused jewelry, quilts and wall hangings, specialty soaps, knitted, felted and crocheted hats and more.  The festival takes place from 8 a.m. – 2 p. m. at the Gowensville Community Center on Hwy. 11, north of the intersection with Hwy. 14.  Breakfast biscuits and grits, ahot dog lunch, an antique tractor show, a bake sale and attic treasures are part of the day’s activities. This annual fundraiser is sponsored by the Greater Gowensville Association to maintain the historic community center, built in 1922 as the Gowensville School. (photo submitted by Ellen Henderson)
