Naperville, IL., June 19, 2026 – This summer, the Naperville Women’s Club is hosting its 66th annual Fine Arts and Artisan Fair at Naper Settlement. For the first time ever, The Coffee Lab will have a table selling: coffee, tea, and soap. Held on June 27-28th from 10:00 am to 5:00 pm at 523 S. Webster St. in Naperville, IL, artisans will have tables set up featuring their goods and crafts such as pottery, painting, and glass blowing. The event supports local artists and businesses as well as local charities. 

This opportunity arose after hosting a meeting for the Naperville Women’s Club at The Coffee Lab in the Larrance Academic Building on North Central College’s (NCC) campus. During the meeting, the club was able to hear from and speak to student workers. Learning about the mission of the business which operates as a direct trade business, a research and learning lab, and a hub for connection. 

Student, Project Lead, and Enactus Co-President Elizabeth Herwaldt has been part of The Coffee Lab for two years. She says that she “love[s] working markets because they allow us to connect with our customers and share our partners’ stories.” 

Two of the products featured at the Fine Arts and Artisan Fair will be: the premium Whiskey Aged Guatemala coffee and the Coffee Soap. The Guatemalan coffee is sourced from San Lucas Tolimán, Guatemala from a direct trade relationship with the small-plot farmers. The farmers send their green beans then The Coffee Lab roasts them on NCC’s campus. 

The Coffee Soap is created as a collaboration with a local artisan, Love and Earth Soap. It utilizes the coffee beans from the farming partners that are roasted on campus. Love and Earth Soap then puts the beans into a soap, creating a delicious coffee scent to be used as a hand soap or in the shower. The label is also made by evabeva design, a student at NCC.
