Open House Creative Fest

Taking place in a repurposed retail space formerly occupied by a Joann fabric store, the Open House Creative Fest combines a traditional artisan market with interactive learning. Visitors can shop for unique art, clothing, and home decor while engaging directly with makers to learn new skills. The event is designed to foster a sense of community by allowing guests to sit down and create projects alongside the business owners.

While general admission to browse the market is free, the festival offers an 'activity passport' for a fee. This passport grants access to specific workshops hosted at individual vendor booths, such as sessions for arranging dried flowers or upcycling materials into keychains. Additionally, the passport allows for unlimited use of the 'activity garden,' a communal area equipped with various supplies like paint, paper, and fabric for self-directed art projects.
