Memorial Weekend Arts and Crafts
Written By: Jenny King | Issue: 2016/05 - May
The Village Green in Cashiers will come alive this Memorial Day weekend as some of the region’s finest artisans converge for the bi-annual Cashiers Rotary Arts & Crafts Show.
The show takes place on Saturday, May 28, and Sunday, May 29, from 10:00 A.M. to 5:00 P.M. both days, rain or shine. While admission is free, a suggested donation of $3 or more is appreciated. Proceeds go to benefit the many community service projects and non-profit organizations supported by the Rotary Club of Cashiers Valley.
This juried event draws some of the finest artisans from throughout the Southeast. From as far away as Texas to local favorites from right here in Western North Carolina, the show features more than 85 exhibitors showcasing a variety of original arts and handmade crafts. Spend the day browsing the aisles of one-of-a-kind pieces from painters, sculptors, jewelers, wood and metal workers, quilters, toy and instrument crafters, soap and condiment makers, and more.
Feeling hungry? Stop by the Pavilion for a hamburger, hot dog, or veggie burger grilled fresh before your eyes and served up by members of Cashiers Rotary. There will be live performances by local musician Steven Johannessen, whose rich tones and repertoire of classics and standards have made him an area favorite and children can laugh and play on the nearby playground while parents relax at a picnic table in the shade. All this is set against the backdrop of our beautiful mountain home and the charming atmosphere of Cashiers.
Make a day of this event and help support the many local charities, non-profit organizations, community projects and scholarship recipients that Cashiers Rotary contributes to. The Village Green is located at the intersection of Highways 64 and 107 in beautiful Cashiers.
