Plymouth Public Library Juried Arts & Crafts Festival
Saturday, September 9th & Sunday, September 10th 10 am – 4 pm
The Plymouth Public Library Foundation is pleased to announce our 4th Annual Juried Arts & Crafts
Festival. The Festival will take place Saturday, September 9th & Sunday, September 10th from 10am to
4pm at the Plymouth Public Library.
Held on the Library’s expansive front lawn and inside the library, thousands of visitors will enjoy a full
day of music, food, and the opportunity to view and purchase artwork from over 80 regional artisans
including painters, photographers, sculptors, custom jewelry makers, woodworkers, metalworkers, and
illustrators.
Festival admission is free and activities include face-painting, sand art for kids, Child’s Play Alpaca for
the whole family to enjoy, plus “Craft and Chill” where families can create their own masterpiece
inside the library. We will also be holding a silent auction and an artisan raffle during the festival. New
this year, sponsored by Modern Metal Design, is “Art under Creation,” an interactive exhibit that offers
visitors the opportunity to witness artists bring their visions to life.
Auxiliary parking with shuttle service is available at the Center for Active Living on Nook Road (just
around the block from the Library). While at the festival, Plymouth residents can register for a library
card and anyone can register for the Reading Rivals contest.
Festival proceeds assist the Plymouth Public Library Foundation in providing the Library with
technology and landscaping improvements, support the Library’s Literacy Program of Greater
Plymouth and also fund its many cultural, artistic and educational programs.
The Festival is funded in part by the Town of Plymouth Promotions Fund and is sponsored by area
businesses and organizations including: Tech Etch, Bridgewater Credit Union, Modern Metal Design,
Tiny and Sons Glass, Alvin Hollis & Co. Inc, Allen & Majors Associates Inc, COBRA, Dimarzio
Insurance, Members Plus Credit Union, One Stop Painting, Plymouth-Carver Primary Care, Plymouth
