The 10th Annual Craft Festival at Fruitlands is back, September 24 & 25, after a 2-year Covid-19 hiatus. Fruitlands Museum is seeking applications from New England Craft Artisans making original and handmade work. The festival is a two-day outdoor show featuring 48 juried artisans. Set on the picturesque grounds at Fruitlands Museum, the show’s quality of craft, museum offerings, and stunning views has made the festival a popular September destination.
