If you are a maker, designer or artist interested in a stall working with storytelling and folkloric traditions, we’d love to hear from you!
In keeping with the spirit of our festival, we take an expansive and inclusive approach to folk art for this fair.
We are still accepting applications on a rolling basis, and are particularly interested in makers working with traditional crafts.
