The Sundance Artisan Show is marking its 10th year. For the past five years the show has been held on the picturesque Fall River, at a wooded site right behind the Fall River Restaurant on Highway #7 and Road 36 (Maberly Elphin Road) in the village of Maberly.

With over 40 artisans in one location this show offers the unique opportunity to see many artists showing their one of a kind work in many different mediums. Pottery, wood turning, jewelry, furniture, weaving, glass and even cedar strip boats are all here for your viewing and shopping pleasure.

Among the artisans at the show this year there are nine who work in wood, plus seven of Ontario's leading glass artists, including Sarah Dionne from Stirling, Alexi and Mariel Hunter from Kingston Glass Studio, Lalaland Glass Studio from Prince Edward County, Yolanda Noble from Inverary, Diane Proulx from Ottawa, and Cindy Laneville from Winchester,

Add in fine food catered by the Fall River Restaurant and live music and you have a can't be missed celebration of the arts.

Held on Saturday, Sunday and Monday of the Labour Day weekend, organizers have added a new "preview opening" on Friday evening, Sept. 2 from 5 to 7 pm. The main show hours are Saturday & Sunday from 10 to 5 and Monday from 10 to 2. Parking and entry are free!

So come out and enjoy the art, the food and the music. Chat with the artists, meet old friends and make new ones at the Sundance Artisan Show. For more information and to see a full list of the artists and their work go to www.sundancestudio.ca
