Dear Craftspeople,
We
are planning the 36th Annual Apple Pie Craft Fair to
be held rain or shine, Saturday,
August 22 from 9 am - 4 pm on the Newport Town
Common.
As
you may know, the Apple Pie Craft Fair is an annual
event sponsored by the Library
Arts
Center
to raise funds for exhibits, classes
and programs. The fair is open to both amateur and
professional
artists and craftspeople and will provide
an opportunity to exhibit, market and demonstrate
your
work. Handcrafted items are given preference.
Farmer's Market and homebaked goods (except
apple
pies) are welcome. All merchandise and
food sold is subject to approval by the Library
Arts Center
Board.

The
$65.00 space fee is non-refundable after August 14,
2009. Registrations received after July 10th will have
a late fee of $10. No vendor is accepted for booth
space
until payment is received in full. No booths will be
booked on the morning of the fair. Spaces measure a

own display table, tent (in case of rain and for shade)

combined with the
Richards Free Library

communities.
