Meet the artisans, learn the stories behind their work and shop for the best in fine arts and fine crafts - from simple to lavish - youll find one-of-a-kind creations for every budget.The Virginia Beach Spring Craft Market will feature 200 fine artists and craftspeople from across the nation offering fine arts, handcrafted jewelry, wood, glass, photography, candles, woven baskets, clothing, toys, folk art and specialty foods. Each piece is a creation from the skilled hands of an American craftsperson. Each purchase supports the history and tradition of true American craftsmanship. It is a great time to introduce new lines and special accessories for the home and garden. We are especially interested in wrought iron, wreaths, garden statuary, birdhouses, outdoor furniture, pottery and wind chimes and other one-of-a-kind creations. A long-time customer said: "I found beautiful art work for my home, unique stepping stones for my garden, cute accessories for my daughters room, a gift of jewelry for my friend and the perfect scarf for my mother for Mothers Day." In addition, Heritage Celebration!, an area of educational demonstrations by local craft designers and guilds (here are the 2009 Guild participants), has been a huge success since its premier presentation in 1997. See and interact with local craft guild members in the gallery. These gifted artisans will demonstrate the techniques and skills used to produce quality American-made crafts. Live demos include: knitting, spinning, sewing, beadwork, quilting, woodcarving and wood turning just to name a few. Bring the kids and let them watch a crafter turn a simple slab of clay, block of wood, or skein of yarn into a stunning and functional work of art. | |
