Looks like this event has already taken place.

3575 College Rd., Harrisburg, IL 62946

The annual Heritage Festival at Southeastern Illinois College focuses on locally handcrafted items and delicious food.

More than 90 vendors will have wares to sell, kicking off the holiday shopping season. Items include handmade jewelry, handmade 18-inch doll clothes, wooden creations, Christmas items, handmade purses, candles, honey products, antiques and collectables, homegrown vegetables, lazy Susans, trays made from whiskey barrel tops, and many more. A new booth this year includes a fashion truck with displays on the sidewalk.

Of course, no festival is complete without food. Vendors will have lemon shake-ups, homemade candies, kettle corn, spiced nuts, and much more. The Falcon Pointe Bistro will serve complete dinners including fried chicken, chicken & dumplings, soup, salads, sandwiches and desserts.

Admission to the event and parking are both free, and handicapped parking is available.
