MONTVILLE is gearing up to celebrate its dynamic arts and crafts scene with its inaugural event ‘Artifest,’ a vibrant weekend event filled with workshops, demonstrations, and exhibitions across various locations in Montville village on May 3rd and 4th.
Presented by the Montville Chamber of Commerce, you can attend a range of micro-events showcasing the creativity and craftsmanship of our region. With 10 separate micro-events to choose from, you can plan your weekend to take it all in.
There are woodworking and carving workshops, glass-blowing demonstrations and workshops, art and ceramics workshops, even one for the kids! You are also invited to paint ‘en plein air,’ capturing Montville’s stunning landscapes. At the Opalcutter, you can meet the miners, cutters, and designers. For the crafters, there are demonstrations on watercolour painting, spinning, crocheting, card making, and more. Enjoy pizza and gin tasting while viewing local furniture and leather making. You can even watch candy making demonstrations.
