La Crosse’s Holiday Fair is the latest big local event to be called off because of COVID-19.

La Crosse Center director Art Fahey spoke earlier this week about still trying to have the annual craft fair as usual in November, but he tells us that a Coulee Collaborative advisory against large gatherings forced the Center to make a quick decision.

Fahey still hopes to have other late-year events at the Center, including the community Thanksgiving dinner and high school wrestling tournaments.
