Over one hundred artists will fill lovely Newport Landing, overlooking the Avon River and its spectacular tidal bore. This year on Saturday, June 15th, this charming little village burgeons into the best art fair venue around.
Always held the third Saturday in June, you can be sure that you will find exceptional juried art that includes paintings, jewelry, pottery, glass, sculpture, fiber, leather, photography and more. Food vendors will entice you with their unique fair offerings and a talented array of local musicians will perform onstage throughout the day. The fun begins at 10 am and runs until 5 pm. This fair is held in concert with the After-A-Fair event at the neighboring Avondale Sky Winery.
Shuttle busses will run throughout the day so that you may enjoy both of these exciting venues. This winery is known for its sailing of the former Walton Church on the Minas Basin to its present location as their retail site. If you haven't yet visited this renovated historic site, it is a must-see destination! Musicians from the Art Fair will migrate to the Winery for the continuation of festivities. Picnic between the vines, enjoy wine tasting and fabulous food, and feel free to linger into the evening. This is a "must attend event" for the entire family. It's held in a great little community on the Avon Peninsula. Please plan to join us!
