August Craft Festival, Aug. 3

Friday, July 12, 2024

(July 12, 2024) The Pine’eer Craft Club will host its annual August Craft Festival on Saturday, Aug. 3 from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. in both the Ocean Pines Community Center and White Horse Park.

A tradition in the community for nearly five decades, the event will feature dozens of local artisans and crafters selling 100% handmade items and unique home décor.

Craft Club President Sharon Puser said many of the creators return for the event each year.

“We try to offer a nice array of crafts, from pottery, wreaths, wood signs and fiber crafts to sea glass jewelry and specialty home décor,” Puser said. “Our event chair, Kelly Shoaf Davis, asks that each applicant submit photos of their work, and she takes great care in her booth arrangement.”

The Kiwanis Club will sell lunch items during the festival, and Craft Club members will host a bake sale featuring a variety of sweet treats that sell out each year.

The event is free and open to the public and offers free parking. There is no rain date, and the festival will go on, rain or shine.

“If you want to see even more locally handcrafted items, be certain to stop in at the Artisan Gift Shop just across White Horse Park from the Community Center,” Puser said. “The shop will be open during regular hours of 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. We showcase seasonal items as well as home décor favorites.”

Coming up, the Craft Club will host the annual Holiday Craft Fair on Nov. 2. Space for the event is already sold out.

Those interested in joining the club should contact Sherry Waskey at [email protected] for more information.

Since its inception, the Craft Club has donated nearly $185,000 back to Ocean Pines. The club has been proudly handcrafting in Ocean Pines for 50 years.
