We are honored to be recognized by the community for our long-standing event!
Enjoy a fun family weekend outdoors by browsing and shopping handmade items from our talented artisans, eating delicious food from the food trucks, purchasing wine from NYS wineries, joining us for kids’ activities, partaking in guided house tours, and listening to live music.
Many of our artisans enjoy demonstrating and/or educating others on their crafts through lectures and displays. Thus, keeping the tradition of the Madison County Craft Festival alive through their demonstrations.
