Chili & Jewelry Sale Returns May 13

Hot enough for you? It will be on Saturday, May 13, when the Warm Your Heart Chili and Jewelry Sale returns to St. Ann Center’s Stein Campus, 2801 E. Morgan Ave.  This popular fundraiser, which runs from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., will feature traditional and vegetarian chili,  delicious homemade fry bread, a fabulous vintage jewelry, and local vendors selling crafts and more, just in time for Mother’s Day!

Browse a roomful of sparkling vintage, heirloom and costume jewelry at bargain prices— rings, bracelets, necklace, pins, earrings, cufflinks and watches. Jewelry is regularly donated to St. Ann Center for this sale;  volunteers clean, repair, and price it all to sell.

Also in the spotlight: unique creations designed and hand-crafted by Sr. Edna Lonergan, St. Ann Center founder and president. Sr. Edna began making jewelry years ago as a hobby and to supplement funding for health and wellness services the nonprofit organization provides.

In the spacious atrium, about two dozen local vendors will offer, quality crafts, home décor, artwork, produce and more. Cream City Blu Project will perform folk, rock, Americana and other tunes from 10 a.m. to noon in “Club Veranda,” overlooking the atrium. Outfitted with tables and chairs, Club Veranda is the perfect spot to enjoy a bowl of chili while listening.

Proceeds from jewelry and chili sales support the care of children and adults of all ages and abilities at St. Ann Center. For more information, call 414-977-5064.
