Arts Center East Showcases CT Artisans

Arts Center East's first Virtual Artisan Craft Fair features hundreds of items from regional and local artisans.

When the pandemic hit and it became necessary for Arts Center East to temporarily close, the staff and Board of Directors had to think outside the box to continue to engage the community and support artists. This is the second year Arts Center East has held a summer artisan craft fair, but this is the first time it has gone virtual. On the Arts Center East website, now through August 15, you can browse and shop - at your convenience. The virtual artisan fair includes a range of items, from jewelry to stationary, to bird houses, skin care, home decor, kids toys, and more. And best of all, shopping with Arts Center East supports these artists and the arts community. With so many of the summer and fall craft fairs canceled this year, you can find what you're missing at Arts Center East's Virtual Artisan Craft Fair.
