30th Annual Wild Wind Folk Art & Craft Festival Saturday, Sept. 12th and Sunday, Sept. 13th, 2009
Warren County Fairgrounds Rte. 6, Pittsfield, Pa.
This celebrated and award-winning Festival will be returning to its popular home site, the quaint Warren County Fairgrounds, located on Rt. 6, approximately 13 miles west of the historic town of Warren, Pa. The hours are 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. each day and it will be held rain or shine as most exhibits are under cover.
Our goal is to entertain, enlighten, enthuse and enrich festival-goers by demonstrating our country's rich cultural heritage through the arts. Being fully aware that families and individuals are now looking for entertainment relatively close to home,we have put together a weekend that cannot be equaled. For the very reasonable price of $6 for adults, $4 for seniors and children 12 and under free of charge, (if you attend on Saturday, this fee enables you to return on Sunday for free!)attendees will be given the opportunity to see the unique, handcrafted wares of the 140 artisans who have been selected to showcase their work at this prestigious festival. There is something for everyone's taste and pocketbook, from one-of-a-kind collector's pieces to small gift items.
Musical entertainment will abound. Ecuadorian musicians will fill the air with the ethereal sounds of the Andes both Saturday and Sunday along with two more musical groups that will be announced shortly. The shady picnic grove is a wonderful resting place for tired and hungry shoppers. A culinary feast of delectable foods await those with a hearty appetite. Demonstrators include a live Bird of Prey exhibit, an exotic animal display, miniature horses, wood carving, wool spinning and weaving and blacksmithing. There will be wagon rides and pony rides for younger visitors as well.
A delightful Farmer's Market, filled to the brim with fruits and vegetables and a huge selection of perennials and fall flowers are strategically placed at the exit gate to enable shoppers to take home some of the bounty of the Fall season at the end of the day. As you head toward your car, you will take with you the memories of a day filled with the sights and sounds of a truly American celebration!
