Don’t miss The Remsen Barn Festival of the Arts this year
When summer fades and fall is in the air… and it is the fourth full weekend in September, then it must be the Remsen Barn Festival of the Arts
You will find fun for the whole family fifteen miles north of Utica just off Rt 12. On Saturday, Sept. 22, from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., and from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Sunday, Sept. 23, come play in the street with us.
A tradition for 39 years, Main Street is closed to vehicles and transformed into a magical shopping, eating and entertaining adventure. More than 250 quality crafters offer jewelry, textiles, fashion accessories, woodcrafts, soaps, pottery, holiday items, furniture, glass, candles and more. A variety of food vendors offer everything from hearty meals to sweet snacks. Visit the farmers markets for local honey, jams and jellies, gourmet spices and sauces, candy, fudge and local cheese curds, etc.
Featured entertainers are Cincinnati Creek, The Old Main, The Magic of Chris Wheel, Harmony Katz, Butler-Sheehan Dance Studio, Kevin Keating, Mike Woolheater and Jim Boccardo.
Visit the free quilt show at The Remsen Arts Center or find your way through The Corn Maze Saturday and Sunday from from noon to 5 p.m. at The Remsen Depot.
Don’t miss the Remsen Volunteer Fire Company’s pancake breakfast at the fire department Saturday and Sunday at 7 a.m.
At 2:30 p.m. Sunday, all are welcome to the Gymanfa Ganu (Welsh song fest) in the Stone Church on Prospect Street.
Admission to the festival is free, and there is plenty of parking.
Hot streets and crowds are a dangerous place for animals; leave your pet safe at home.
