The 33rd annual Pocono State Craft Festival will be held this weekend at the Quiet Valley Living Historical Farm, 347 Quiet Valley Road, Stroudsburg.

The event, co-sponsored by the Pocono Arts Council and the Pocono Chapter of the Pennsylvania Guild of Craftsmen, celebrates the heritage, beauty and quality of Pennsylvania Crafts. It runs from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. both Saturday and Sunday. There is an admission fee for anyone age 13 and older. Children 12 and under are free.

Since the first festival in 1986, the Pocono State Craft Festival has attracted the finest artists and craftspeople from across the United States and features traditional and contemporary handmade items.

Patrons will find handcrafted items in pottery, jewelry, metal, stained glass, wood, baskets, leather, folk art, fine art, photography, soap, gourmet foods and art-to-wear.

Craftsmen will travel from all parts of Pennsylvania as well as New Jersey, New York, Connecticut, West Virginia and North Carolina.

Live demonstrations will bring the creative process to life — from raw material to finished product. All craftsmen will be available to discuss their individual work and provide patrons with an opportunity to purchase unique, high quality crafts.

Festivalgoers will also enjoy the history of the Quiet Valley Living Historical Farm. The farm buildings, animals and beautiful gardens will be open to give visitors a taste of a 19th century Pennsylvania German farm.

There will be live music from the Lost Ramblers on Saturday and a musical performance by Doug Smith’s Dixieland group on Sunday, plus a variety of festival foods and baked goods from Quiet Valley.

Quiet Valley is a working farm, no pets or smoking are permitted on the property and the area is not fully ADA compliant, however, many people using wheelchairs and walkers enjoy the festival annually.
