(845) 516-4342

Dutchess Community College - Poughkeepsie, NY

Boasting just over 100 artists, the fair has become a holiday shopping tradition for many in the region, and one that stands in stark opposition to the Black Friday culture propagated by Big Box Stores. The fair presents an alternative to the frenzied buying experience that Black Friday consumers experience. This is not a festival for imported or mass-produced products; everything onsite is handmade, with the artist or maker in attendance. Like Quail Hollow's other events, this one is juried, with exhibitors thoughtfully selected to ensure a balanced assortment of handmade work.
