Once again, Local Fiber members are working together to host a holiday pop-up shop with Events and Classes open to all! The 2025 Local Fiber Holiday Popup store will be open from November 1 to December 28 at 115 South Cayuga Street in Ithaca, NY, right off of the Commons, staffed by Local Fiber members, many of whom raise fiber animals on farms in the area. You'll find an array of items from local wool, alpaca, angora and other animal fibers, and products ranging from millspun and handspun yarns, mittens, hats, socks and gloves, to shawls, scarves and beautiful fiber art, home decor and more! Workshops, demonstrations and social hours will include Thursday evenings from 6 to 8, open fiber arts evenings and How to Wash Locks on 12/11.

This year, the Victorian Lady antique shop in Oneida is on a mission to collect and distribute warm winter coats and accessories to help neighbors facing hardship during these difficult times.

“If you would like to help make someone's winter a little warmer, we would be most grateful!” says Ms. Gerri Gray, the shop’s proprietor. “We are holding the coat drive throughout the fall and winter.” She added, “We also plan to host a few food giveaways, so if anyone wishes to donate any canned food (including pet food) and/or other non-perishable items, they can bring them to the shop during our regular business hours or simply leave them on our front porch.”

Donations of new and gently-used coats, scarves, and gloves are being accepted every Monday and Saturday from noon until 5 p.m. and on all other days by appointment only. The shop, which was featured on Lite 98.7, is located at 302 Main Street, Oneida, NY (at the corner of Stone).

Want to try curling?

The Finger Lakes Curling Club offers several Learn to Curl sessions each year. Each Learn to Curl session lasts for two hours and consists of an off-ice introduction to the game, about 45 minutes of on-ice instruction, and then about an hour of putting those newly learned skills to work in a practice game.

The club provides the instructors and all the necessary equipment for curling.

Already signed up? Here’s what you need to know: Bring soft-soled sneakers to wear on the ice. We’ll provide grippers to go over the sole of your shoe. We recommend dressing in layers for warmth, loose-fitting pants rather than jeans, and hats and gloves. Bring a water bottle.

The cost is $35 per person (ages 18+).
