HALIBURTON ART AND CRAFT FESTIVAL 2020 IS CANCELLED
WHY? We did this with the health and well-being of our volunteers, staff, the public and you, the Artist, in mind. The COVID19 crisis and the waves that are bound to follow are rippling through the arts community and around the world. We are confident this was the right thing to do. We are also confident we will get through this together. Please support handmade, handcrafted, original craft and art by Canadians however you can by shopping, talking, admiring and getting to know more about the Craft movement in Canada.
WHAT NEXT? Thank you for checking in. We will rise again. You can join our arts-minded community by subscribing to Rails End UPDATES below.

New to Haliburton Art and Craft?
Ceramics, glass, leather, fashion, visual art, sculpture, fibre art, jewelry, fine woodworking, music, great food, craft beer and more are what make Haliburton Art and Craft the highlight of summer in cottage country. #haliburtonartandcraft
Haliburton County's largest outdoor event celebrates all that's great about handcrafted and original designs by Canadian artists and artisans. Entry is open to Canadian makers. This is a juried event. The selection committee evaluates entries based on originality, identity of design, craftsmanship and use of materials. We strive to bring festival-goers a well rounded, eclectic and one of a kind outdoor craft show experience that will appeal to the seasoned collector and the first time buyer alike. Whether you live in cottage country or visiting for a day, week or more if you value creativity and excellence you will not be disappointed.
