Fiber Faire in conjunction annual Cornish Festival & Celtic Celebration

Description

Farmers, fashionistas, and makers will be on hand to share all the wonderful ways fiber can be used. Join Shake Rag Alley for demos, shopping, and a fashion show, all during Mineral Point’s Cornish Festival & Celtic Celebration! The Fiber Faire is free and open to all. This year’s Fiber Faire events will include demos with craftspeople, artists, and farmers all over campus. Attendees will have the opportunity to learn from artisans who make by hand, including demonstrations with spinning, weavering, dyeing, embroidery, felting & more! Not to be missed is an opportunity to learn about the life cycle of fiber with the cutest sheep (and maybe a surprise guest) you’ll ever meet—from Sugar Springs Farm. Fiber Faire will feature a flash fashion show at 2 p.m on the Green. All are welcome to show off fiber creations, their upcycled aesthetics, and fashion do’s for bragging rights. Sweet and salty treats will be available for purchase from The Sweet Life Ice Cream Parlor. Unique crafters, makers, artists, and artisans are invited to show their wares and creations at the Fiber Faire Pop-up Market. The Fiber Faire market will be open 10 a.m. - 3:30 p.m. $35 includes a 6-foot table and 2 chairs set up under tents on the Green. Vendor load-in is at 9 a.m. and tear-down is at 3:30 p.m. For more information, or to register to be a vendor, visit www.ShakeRagAlley.org/fiber-faire or call (608) 987-3292.
