WEEKEND — Port Townsend Art Guild’s Crafts by the Dock Fair this weekend

The fair will be open from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Saturday and from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Sunday.

The show will include 54 artists from the North Olympic Peninsula, the Pacific Northwest and out of state.

Fair-goers will find glasswares, handmade furniture, handmade wood jewelry, rugs, pottery, hunting and kitchen knives, cedar-carvings, boat paintings, hammocks, beads, photography, laminated and carved wooden bracelets, toys and children’s clothes.

The Community Bowl Project will provide tables of blank bowls awaiting creative paint designs and bowls that are already painted that can be purchased, with all proceeds going to the Jefferson County Food Bank.

Musicians are welcome to play during the fair and put out the hat.

The Port Townsend Arts Guild is a self-supporting nonprofit arts organization funding art college scholarships and other cultural events, made possible by booth fees paid by the artists.
