Art, food, music all part of festival The International Christmas festival, held over the weekend at the old Union Station, drew shoppers and spectators fropi all over the area who wanted to pick up that special handcrafted item for someone on their Christmas list or just browse and soak up the festive atmosphere and international flavor of this year's event. Craftsmen displayed jewelry, pottery, macrame and handmade tree ornaments while the German American Society entertained with Christmas carols. Native dances and strains of “Amazing Grace" and “Blue Eyes Crying in the Rain" drifted from yet another room where a country band performed. Gourmands had an opportunity to satisfy hunger pangs with Chinese beef, fresh cheeses, French pastries and homemade cakes and candies.
