Hadley Mothers Club Holiday Fair Saturday 11/21/26 at Hopkins Academy!

This cherished community tradition brings together neighbors, friends, and families to kick off the holiday season with warmth, joy, and giving.

Visitors will find a wonderful selection of local artisans and vendors, offering everything from handmade crafts and unique gifts to seasonal décor and treats. It’s the perfect chance to get your holiday shopping started while supporting small businesses and the charitable work of the Hadley Mothers’ Club.

But the Holiday Fair is more than just shopping—it’s about giving back. Proceeds from the event directly support our scholarships for high school students, the Brown Bag Program for seniors, and other community initiatives that strengthen Hadley year-round. When you shop, you’re helping us continue to make a difference
