It is being held as a fundraiser for Special Olympics of Homer, and will offer more than 20 vendors with handmade items, nonprofits selling raffle tickets and home consultants selling such things as Tupperware and Mary Kay products. Special Olympics also will have a booth and Special Olympic athletes will be selling their crafts.
