Hammondsport, New York – Pulteney Square hosted a range of artwork on display as part of the Hammondsport Festival of Crafts. More than ninety vendors arrived from the East Coast and the Twin Tiers.
Enthusiastic festival guests who were curious about the creative process and captivated by the exhibited artwork attended the event.
“I adore this craft fair. I’ve been a patriot there for a very long time since it features excellent artists, high-caliber displays, and is reasonably priced.
It’s a pretty pleasant program.
The Finger Lakes region’s native fauna was depicted in watercolor pictures on exhibit at the festival. Additional projects included metal art pieces, photography, and jewelry.
“Although my daughter is really into jewelry, and we are actually looking for a hat that says Keuka upside down, I still like the glass art,” Bethany Buryta remarked.
Jay Buryta, who enjoyed some of the woodworking, continued, saying, “I find it truly amazing and cool how these people can accomplish these kinds of things.” It’s really lovely.
The Smoke on the Water barbeque tournament will take place next Saturday, August 24, from noon to 8:00 p.m.
