After a short break, the Heritage Winooski Mill Museum's Fiber Fair is back! The Fiber Fair will take place Sunday, September 1st, 2024 from 10am-2pm at 20 Winooski Falls Way.
We're partnering with the Winooski Farmers Market, located right outside the historic Champlain Mill. As a nod to our textile manufacturing roots, we're looking for artists who produce products incorporating: felting, weaving, knitting, crochet, macrame, hand spun yarns, resist dyes, block printing, silk screening, etc…
First priority deadline is May 1st. Applications received after will be reviewed on a rolling basis with a final deadline of August 1st.
