The 35th Heart of Lancaster Arts & Craft Show will take place on Saturday, Sept. 2, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Sunday, Sept. 3, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. It will be held at Root's Country Market and Auction, 705 Graystone Road, Manheim.

The event will feature diverse fine artists and craftspeople, including artists demonstrating their work; food; and live music. New exhibitors will be included again this year, and all products for sale are handmade.

This year's charity project aims to help Vietnam veterans. Customers and visitors may come to the information booth to sign up a special veteran and provide the veteran's name and address. Some of the veterans will win gift cards for a meal. Visitors may also sponsor a veteran for a fee. The entirely outdoor event will take place rain or shine. Admission and parking are free.

The Heart of Lancaster Arts & Craft Show has been recognized among the top 200 in the country for 10 years.
