Duke Gardens craft sale preview

Our volunteer Garden Guild works tirelessly all year long making gift items for sale in the Terrace Shop and at our annual holiday craft sale. This year's sale is Saturday, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. in the Doris Duke Center. Admission is free and parking is free until 1 p.m. Groups in buses are welcome. All proceeds from the sale go directly to Duke Gardens.

We hope you'll come and take a look at the sweets, ornaments, stationery, knitted items and other treasures they've made. Here's a preview for you.
