Find original art you can't buy in a store.

Every booth is run by the artist who made what's on the table. Over the weekend you can talk with painters, potters, photographers, jewelers, and woodworkers about how a piece came together, then take it home a one-of-a-kind piece of art.

The festival is on the open outdoor campus of the Siegel JCC ("The J"). Wander the grounds at your own pace, stop for lunch from a food truck, and entertain the kids with family friendly activities. It's a relaxed spring weekend celebrating original work and the artists and artisans behind it.

WHAT TO EXPECT AT THE FESTIVAL

Discover Original Work

Browse 150 juried artists and artisans showing painting, photography, ceramics, jewelry, fiber, and handmade goods. Every piece is original, and you can meet the person who made it.

Fun for the kids

A dedicated children's activities area runs both days, with hands-on art projects and family crafts. Angel's Retreat brings rescue animals by to meet, so there's plenty to keep the little ones busy while you shop.

Make a day of it

Two food courts and a beer garden keep everyone happy, with live music across the weekend. Parking is free with a shuttle from the Delaware Corporate Center, so you can settle in and take your time.
