An annual flea market-style fundraiser, WMNF’s 11th annual Holiday Bazaar draws Bay area bargain hunters from far and wide, most of them frittering away the day in an intent, tireless search through boxes upon boxes of used books, records, CDs, and audio and visual equipment. Local artists sell one-of-a-kind handmade gifts, a '60’s themed room features posters, lava lamps and classic albums, storytellers entertain, local musicians perform, and food is served throughout. Make sure to arrive early if you're hoping to pick up something in particular – the bazaar is a popular event and lines usually start forming outside up to an hour beforehand. Sat., Dec. 13, 10 a.m.-5 p.m., The Cuban Club, 2010 Republica De Cuba, Ybor City, $3 admission, 813-248-2954.
