Bring the whole family and get ready for a weekend of fun, creativity, craftsmanship and community spirit at Heritage Park’s Artisans’ Fair Featuring Festival of Quilts!
We’re stitching together something extra special this year by expanding our beloved Festival of Quilts into a full-blown celebration of handmade magic. From hundreds of colourful quilts to a wide variety of local artisan goods—think cozy textiles, beautiful pottery, sparkly jewelry, playful woodwork and so much more—there’s something for everyone to enjoy!
Kids and grown-ups alike can explore the Park, meet friendly makers, watch live demos, and even try a few hands-on activities. Whether you’re hunting for that perfect handmade gift, learning a new craft or just out for some family fun, this two-day fair is packed with charm, creativity and discovery.
So pack up the stroller, grab a snack (or two!) and enjoy a full day of shopping, storytelling and creative inspiration at the Historical Village. It’s going to be sew much fun!
