It is being organised by Engage, for which Lesley is working on a project as a part-time volunteer co-ordinator.
Community groups are being invited to book a space to promote their work to the public at the fair which will run from noon until 7pm.
The fair is the brainchild of Philippa Buckley, of TIME4 Events Ltd, and Bill Howard, of Minehead Old Town Hall Investments Ltd (MOTHI).
Bill will be available during the day to lead tours of the building and answer questions about plans for its future.
