Iowa City Public Library’s online bazaar fundraiser is now online

The Iowa City Public Library's Friends Foundation will host its popular Arts and Crafts Bazaar through the end of December. This year, due to COVID-19 precautions, the event will be hosted online. The fundraiser is in its ninth year and is made possible by the generous donations of local artists and crafters.

Said Cheryl Hetherington, who donated items for the bazaar: “I love the Library, and I love to do art. It seems like the perfect mixture to share those loves with you all.”

All proceeds from this local gift buying option directly support the Iowa City Public Library. The public can visit the online market to find a wide selection of unique gifts from quilts and knitted items to jewelry, holiday ornaments and more. Purchases can be picked up at the library or, thanks to the IC Downtown District's sponsorship, delivered directly to your home.
