It was a perfect weekend to get out into the fresh late-spring air, as The Bruce Museum’s 36th Annual Outdoor Crafts Festival took place on Saturday and Sunday, May 22 and 23, 2021.
After being conducted as a virtual show in 2020, the Festival – one of the greater Greenwich community’s favorite spring weekend attractions – returned, with artists and artisans from throughout New England and the East Coast featuring fine contemporary hand-made crafts in jewelry, wearable and decorative fiber, glass, furniture and housewares, pottery, and much more, all available for purchase.
Join us in extending a HUGE Thank You to the volunteers, staff, and vendors that make this popular Greenwich event possible.
