The 25th annual event will be from 9:30 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. Friday, Nov. 4 and Saturday, Nov. 5, at the Gainesville Civic Center, 830 Green St. NE, in Gainesville. A preview party will be from 6:30-9:30 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 3.

All proceeds from the event will go to Safe Kids Gainesville/Hall County, which provides education to families on preventing accidental injury, according to its website. Safe Kids is an initiative within the Medical Center Foundation’s Healthy Journey Campaign.
