Annapolis Arts and Crafts Festival

When is an arts and crafts festival more than an arts and crafts festival?  When it is also a WINE FESTIVAL!

A juried arts and crafts festival offering a weekend of over 200 fine arts and handmade crafts, performances, and wine tastings from over 15 Maryland wineries, gourmet food and activities for the whole family.

The Annapolis Arts and Crafts Festival combines not just the largest collection of artists and craftsmen ever presented at a festival in Annapolis but features a Wine and Specialty Food Pavilion that rivals other wine festivals in size and scope.  Over fifteen Maryland wineries will be represented, each offering a selection of their special wines:

So it's a day of shopping for arts and crafts from over 200 artists employing a variety of medium:  painting, sculpture, ceramics, digital art, mixed media, printmaking, jewelry, fiber art, glass, wood, leather, metal and photography ---while enjoying a glass of Maryland wine (or purchase a bottle or two to take home) --- while listening to smooth jazz.  Life is good!

Please, no pets.
