Crafts, Antiques/Collectibles Fair

Over fifty crafters and antiques/collectibles dealers are making plans to participate in this year's festivities beginning on Friday, August 6 at 12:00 noon.  Crafters from across the eastern seaboard will display their merchandise on the grounds of the Hertford Academy for the Arts.  As always, watermelon items will be in demand as well as unique products such as:  ceramics, sterling silver jewelry, computer generated t-shirts, face painting, hand-woven baskets, wood crafts including outdoor furniture, silk flower arrangements, wrought iron yard decorations, stained glass, and acrylic paintings.

"We are excited to have a number of antiques/collectibles dealers participating in this year's festival.  They will be bringing depression glass, small hand tools, and primitive furniture," said Lynette Bunch, Co-Chairperson of the festival.
