Fall is here and the calendar is starting to fill up with events. Take a little time off before things get too hectic and join the Ozark Folk Center crafters for a relaxing evening in the Craft Village. Friday evening, October 9, the Folk Center Craft Village will be open from 7:00 to 10:00. Join us for this informal evening of sharing crafts, gardens and fun. Admission to the Craft Village is free for this special event. The gates next to the Gift Shop and off the Administration Parking lot across from the Skillet Restaurant are open to visitors.
More than a dozen individual craft shops will be open that evening and informal garden tours will be available. Stroll the gardens and visit with the crafters as they work on their items. Talk with them about how they learned their craft and where they find their inspiration. Shop for fine jewelry, corn husk dolls, handmade baskets, hand forged ironwork, wood carvings, hand tied brooms, unique photographs, knives, pottery, quilts, weavings, yarns, rugs, leather belts and more.
