Crafters’ Marketplace: 2024 Craft Show to Benefit the Carpenter Museum

Posted

10/19/24 9AM-4PM

(Rehoboth, MA) –

The Carpenter Museum invites you to our 45th annual Crafters’ Marketplace, Saturday October 19, 9AM-4PM.

Our annual show will be held in the historic Rehoboth Village in three separate but walkable buildings; the Carpenter Museum, the Rehoboth Congregational Church Hall, and Goff Hall at Blanding Public Library. Outdoor vendors will also be on the lawns of both the Carpenter Museum and Blanding Library. “The Hungry Hut” food truck will be serving American food for all those who want to catch lunch and for the first time we will have a face painter for any kids or whimsical grown ups that tag along! As always we will have a fundraiser bake sale and a vendor wares raffle to raise funds for the Carpenter Museum.

This prestigious show has grown in its 45 years from 2 tables of local crafters to dozens of vendors selling their wares to raise money to support Museum projects and programming. This show is committed to bringing quality handmade items from skilled crafters to their shoppers. The Marketplace is free to enter, free to park, and makes the perfect autumn outing. All proceeds go to the Carpenter Museum, a non-for-profit history and research center.
