Summerfolk
Artisan Village
Summerfolk
features an exciting and vibrant open-air market of fine professional
craft work from across Canada. We also showcase artists from the
United States and even from other countries on occasion. Festival
artisans may sell only their own, handcrafted products and are selected
by jury process for the quality of their work and their willingness
to demonstrate and discuss their work with festival goers. The artistry
represented at Summerfolk takes many forms, including glasswork,
jewelry, textiles, paper, instruments, wood, pottery and metal.
Our Artisan
Marketplace will have between 40 and 45 vendors this year and we
will also have buskers who stroll the festival site performing and
selling their wares.
Our
Artisan Village is a major component of the Summerfolk festival
and adds a colourful and exciting aspect to the Summerfolk experience.
If you are an artist and would like to participate, please complete
the application form and return it to the office no later
than March 15, 2008. Info on 2009 deadline coming soon.
Check
out the fine Artisans and Crafters that will be participating in
this years Summerfolk.
