2008 Bethel Art Fair
Saturday, July 5, 2008 ~ 19th Annual Bethel Art Fair ~ Artists and Artisans all day; fireworks at dusk.
9am - 4pm on the village common.
A great outdoor venue on the village common!
Artists and artisans from all over the area come to this wonderful event. Shop for wall-hung art work & paintings, photographs, sculpture, wood working, fine-crafted jewelry, pottery and more.
The world's tallest SnowWoman, dedicated Feb. 29, was a project that reflected community spirit. A few pieces of one-of-a-kind art will be sold as a tribute to that accomplishment.
- Artist Ken Irons created art on the shovels used by volunteers who handled and stomped 13,000,000 pounds of snow used to make the SnowWoman.
- Also available will be pendant necklaces created by local artisan Jim Mann, who made the world's largest Maine mica pendant to adorn the SnowWoman.
