Frankfort’s Thanksgiving-weekend shopping plans include an indoor alternative to a day of moving between stores.

The Holly Berry Arts & Crafts Fair is scheduled for Saturday, November 28, 2026, at Frankfort-Elberta High School.

Downtown Frankfort and the chamber’s annual calendar both list 9 a.m. to 3 p.m..

The downtown announcement identifies this as the 32nd annual fair and advertises free admission.

Handcrafted offerings include ornaments, home décor, jewelry, baked goods and other gift items.

A holiday raffle is also advertised, with prizes from vendors.

Put the right venue in your plans

This is the high-school fair, rather than a market in an outdoor park.

Share the venue name as well as the date when inviting friends.

If someone needs a particular entrance or accessible drop-off, ask the organizer before setting your meeting place.

The free-admission announcement does not establish the price of any individual product or raffle participation.

Budget for shopping separately from entry.

A short recipient list can make the visit easier to navigate without turning it into a race to buy everything at once.

Questions that make handmade gifts easier

Ask makers about the materials, care instructions and intended use of an item before purchasing.

For something worn or displayed, bring the measurements or other details that will help you choose.

If you are considering food as a gift, ask the seller about ingredients, storage and the date by which it should be enjoyed.

Do not assume a baked item suits a dietary restriction without checking.

For fragile pieces, ask what packaging will protect the gift on the drive home.

If a maker accepts a custom order, agree on the collection or delivery date and keep their contact information.

Ask about exchanges before paying, especially when buying for someone who is not with you.

The conversation with the maker can be part of choosing the gift.

Leave room for a simple visit

A family or group can agree on a spending limit and a time to regroup.

Someone who wants a short browse can attend without committing to a full day of shopping.

If you want to add a meal or another stop in Frankfort, check that business’s hours independently.

Do not assume the fair’s operating window applies to nearby shops or restaurants.

The downtown events calendar and chamber calendar provide two ways to check that the November 28 plans still stand.

Save the announcement rather than a promotional image alone so you retain access to updates.

For Thanksgiving guests looking for an indoor outing, the practical starting point is the school, the 9 a.m.–3 p.m. window and a gift list that leaves room to browse.
