The show is a major fundraiser for the ongoing preservation and upkeep of the Yardley Community Centre, which dates to the early 1800s and was sold to a group of interested townspeople for $1 in 1941, soon becoming the hub of many local activities.

The Yardley Community Centre is at 64 South Main Street. Show hours Friday are 11 am to 7 pm and Saturday 10 am to 5 pm. Admission is $5 and $4 with an ad or article. For additional information, call 215-321-3528.
