Southern Vermont Art & Craft Festival

02/01/2025

would like to announce to our Facebook followers that we will not hold any juried shows in 2025. The 2024 tent collapse in Stowe had a rippling effect that culminated in our inability to pull off either the Southern Vermont Art & Craft Festival or Stowe Foliage Arts Festival. We have also decided not to proceed with the Lake George Art and Craft Festival. We wish to thank all the patrons and exhibitors who offered their support and understanding and hope that we will be able to regroup in 2026 with a juried show in one of our signature locations. If you wish to reach out to us, please do so by email at [email protected]. https://craftproducers.com/ https://stoweartsfest.com/ https://southernvtartcraftfest.com/

Almost forgot! Wendy Chenaille of Bennington won the raffle for the wooden bowl and honey dipper -- which was made by exhibitor Joe Maiorano of Trinkets From Trees, LLC -- at the Southern Vermont Art & Craft Festival. We are mailing Wendy her prize 🤩🤩🤩. Thanks to all who entered the FREE raffle and once again for supporting the show this year. We are still rebuilding the show and can only continue to grow it back by having the support of the participating artists and spectacular patrons 🙋‍♀️🙋.

Rich Ortiz will perform TODAY -- September 6 -- at the 2024 Vermont Art & Craft Festival 🎶🎵🎤🎸 at 11, 1, & 3. Rich Ortiz’s style is truly his own and his music is his soul. Ortiz, never a wallflower, believes he is the product of his family’s cultural diversity and strengths. Since the age of seventeen he’s focused all of his talents and time on his acoustic solo act, if you can call it that. Rich plays guitar, harmonica, and peddle bass (with his feet), and he turns heads with his vocals!

The show is outdoors at the beautiful events field at Riley Rink in Manchester, VT. The address is 410 Hunter Park Rd. Follow the signs past the rink to the events field with gorgeous mountain views and enjoy the music along with beer, wine, and fabulous food concessions -- all this in conjunction with the over 100 Art and Fine Craft exhibitors - Check out the 2024 exhibitor listing: southernvtartcraftfest.com/exhibitor-listing 🧐🧐
