Heritage Festival & Craft Show

Visitors will be taken back to the traditions of the past. Listen, learn, and see history as it comes alive. See artisans and tradesmen dressed in 19th century attire demonstrating their trades and selling their wares. A large contemporary handmade craft area will also be featured.

Kids will have a great time in the Fun For Young’uns area or listening to Ghost Stories Saturday evening from 8-9:30 PM.
