STURBRIDGE — The longest continuously running church auction in the country, the Auction and Craft Fair sponsored by the Federated Church of Sturbridge and Fiskdale brought locals to the common Saturday, Aug. 9. Members spent almost the entire year hunting for antiques and restoring furniture for the auction, which has been running for more than 60 years. There are also pieces created by locals trained in Early American Decoration to replicate arts and crafts of the early 1800’s. The auction takes place each year on the second Saturday in August.

The auctions takes place under tents on the common.

Amanda Collins photos The auction provided time for folks to mingle and chat. Attendees check out the items.
