An annual Craft Fair returns to West Roxbury.

Organizer Eby Pineda-Dorcena, who is a Home & School Association Board Member  said the fair will offer unique merchandise from more than 25 crafters who all create their own products.

 “It’s a great opportunity to buy things that are hand made and that you wouldn’t spot at the mall,” Pineda-Dorcena  said.
