Wander a wonderland of arts and crafts at Laguna Beach’s Sawdust Festival Laguna Beach Arts & crafts festival By Todd Martens For five weekends beginning Nov. 22, a eucalyptus grove in Laguna Beach is transformed into a winter village dedicated to local artisans and handmade arts and crafts. The community has been running the Winter Fantasy edition of its Sawdust Festival for almost 35 years, giving the space over to more than 180 artists.

But Winter Fantasy is more than just a place to buy that perfect holiday ornament. Running Friday to Sundays from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m., look for daily marionette performances, periodic “snowfall,” multiple stages of live music and a host of holiday-inspired food offerings. There’s beer and wine for grown-ups, Santa meet-ups for the little ones and a host of daily art classes. Consider it a mini-Christmas village sprung to life.

Tickets are $12 for adults and $5 for children. Laguna Beach residents get in free on Fridays. The Sawdust Art Festival’s Winter Fantasy runs through Dec. 22.
