Holiday Happenings

Bales Holiday Show bigger than ever

This year’s “Holiday Wine & Food Show” will feature over 60 tables of holiday fare. More than twenty different tables of wines from the Willamette Valley, Walla Walla, California and around the world, will be staffed with knowledgeable people direct from the wineries or distributors.

Local and regional food products will be showcased, by the developers or staff of each producer. Quality meats, artisanal cheeses, delectable baked goods, and confections of all types will be offered for sampling and available for purchase throughout the holiday season. We invite everyone to come sample, enjoy, and talk to the professionals that create the flavors that bring your family home for the season.

Make plans to stop and smell the croissants (and crêpes!) at the French American International School’s Holiday Market, Saturday, December 5 from 9 am–4 pm. Support local vendors and enjoy a festive environment with a European village flair!

Sit and sip with friends or neighbors in the Parisian Café by Petite Provence (sponsored by the Alliance Française de Portland). Taste a selection of wines from Oregon and France that are perfect for serving and giving this season. Sink your teeth into a grilled-on-the spot sausage from Fetzer’s or tuck into a luscious pastry or baguette sandwich while enjoying a children’s choral performance, dance troupe, hammered dulcimer solo, and more.

The Holiday Market is a special project of the FAIS Parent Liaison Committee. In the past, proceeds have been used for the purchase of major equipment such as a sound system, for the maintenance and signage of the school’s nature trail, for sporting equipment, and to fund professional development for staff members.
