To help celebrate the show's 43rd anniversary, we are inviting you to join us on September 9th and 10th while we entertain you, enthuse you and enrich your appreciation of hand made art of all kinds and categories. 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. Attendees will be given the opportunity to see the unique, handcrafted wares of the 150 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.
This year's highlights include the musical group, "Temple Grey" on Saturday, and Cesare Belvano, an Elvis impersonator, on Sunday. Alexander the magician will perform both days, and Brian Fox will demonstrate his chainsaw carvings. A bird of prey exhibit with educational lectures, an exotic animal petting zoo, and a balloon art and face painting booth, along with 150 creative artisans, promise to make this year a must for all ages!
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.
A delightful farmer's market, filled to the brim with fruits and vegetables is 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!
