Many residents will get a jump on Christmas shopping with a French flare this weekend. The Baker Arts Center hosts the French Market Saturday from 10-4 and Sunday from noon to four with a special early bird session from 9-10 Saturday morning. The French Market Holly Glissade is this weekend. Baker Art Center’s Adrienne Hatcher says Baker’s French Market has a following.

"The French Market is deeply rooted in tradition," Hatcher said of Talkradio 1270’s Live From Broadcast Square. We see a lot of the same people every year who have been coming to this event for over 20 years. It’s a long standing tradition."

There will be shops, displays, and baked goods available. Call the Baker Arts Center at 624-2810 for more information.
