Woodstock-New Paltz Art & Crafts Fair

The Hudson Valley’s favorite celebration of handmade The Woodstock-New Paltz Art & Crafts Fair will return to the Ulster County Fairgrounds Memorial Day weekend. This long-standing event is a gathering of hundreds of the country’s most creative small businesses.

Promoted by Quail Hollow Events and consistently voted one of the top 10 contemporary craft shows nationwide by Sunshine Artist Magazine the fair teems with handmade wares from carefully curated exhibitors. Artists share their processes and work via meaningful one-on-one interactions and visitors enjoy learning the history of the objects and engaging with the maker of the unique pieces they purchase.

Fairgoers can look forward to discovering uncommon standout finds for the home body and beyond – from wearable fiber art to mixed media wall art to hand-thrown porcelain table settings large-scale garden fountains dining room tables and everything in between. 

The Woodstock-New Paltz Art & Crafts Fair is cherished for both the relationships it fosters and its vast array of features that appeal to every style and generation. Visitors will delight in ongoing craft demonstrations a variety of small-batch artisanal and prepared-on-site foods and of course local wine beer and spirits. Live musical performances round out this broad celebration of handmade. The youngest attendees (and their parents) will appreciate a complimentary children’s craft tent filled with a wide range of materials — many supplied by the artists themselves. 

Quail Hollow Events selects artists and craftspeople whose work is original in both design and execution requiring the maker of the work to be in attendance. Exhibitors are specialists in one of over 10 media categories and a select few have been participating in the event since its inception in 1982. For over 40 years the festivals have demonstrated the value of in-person platforms where artists and craftspeople can market their work and develop authentic relationships with their public.
