Anyone looking for quality New England craft fairs won't be disappointed in our unique selection of New England Artists and Craftsmen. We had crafters that did or nearly sold out at the shows last year and previous years.

Advertising is by newspapers, some television, flyers, some radio, posters, & online advertising. As we have a large loyal following, our motto makes sense: "Buy direct from the Craftsmen and $ave!"
