Local crafters and professional artists are once again gearing up for the
largest crafts and fine arts festival in the area. The 20th Annual Haddonfield
Fine Arts and Crafts Festival will be held over two days along Kings Highway,
most likely drawing more than 100, 000 visitors to the borough over the weekend.
The festival will be held on Saturday, July 14, from 11 a. m. to 7 p. m. and
Sunday, July 15, from 11 a. m. to 5 p. m. As always, the festival will host a
wide array of crafters and artists for the weekend. The festival will include
arts and crafts, such as ceramics, glass, jewelry, wood, fiber, metal, paper,
drawings, paintings, photography and wearable art. The nationally ranked
festival is not only the area’s largest family-friendly event, it draws
family-run craft businesses from across the country, according to a press
release about the festival. The festival is located along Kings Highway between
Washington and Haddon Avenue and along Tanner Street to Euclid Avenue

this year are Gordon Fine Arts, a husband and wife team that specializes in
paintings and mix-metal jewelry. According to a representative of the festival,
Gordon Fine Arts showcases the collaborative works of artists David E. Gordon

Bags. Interested in something with a little bit more of a kick? Why
not stop by Matt Johnson’s booth and check out his creations. Naomi Johnson of
Picture That Designs has been creating one-of-a-kind off-the-loom bead weaving
pieces for five years and after attending Naomi’s shows, her husband Matt was
inspired to take up his own craft, using recycled bottles to make glass-hanging
mobiles. His pieces include wine, alcohol, and signature-etched bottle
collections. A first at the festival, sisters Jerrie and Marge Ferrell
collaborate to create a variety of pieces such as “upcycled” label coasters and
gemstone jewelry. The sisters will be bringing their business, Naturally by
Marge, to the festival for first time. Coming back to the festival is longtime
participant Maya Handbags and Jewelry. The mother-daughter duo Veni and Maya
Evangelista create handbags and jewelry. Their designs mix a wide variety of
materials, including semi-precious stones, textural leathers, oxidized metals,
metallic threaded cords, and crystal. The event, as always, is free to the
public. Because of large crowds people from outside of the borough are
encouraged to take PATCO to the Haddonfield station and walk the short distance
to Kings Highway. Want to know who all of the crafters and artists will be at
