Art on the Grass - Carp

At the Carp Farmers' Market

I'm always pleasantly surprised how local arts and crafts thrive in rural communities. On my recent visit to the Carp Farmers' Market, I've discovered not only a great variety of fruits, vegetables and backed goods, but also amazing crafts. In the market halls I've found pottery, jewellery, sewed and knitted textiles, wood crafts and even photographs and fiber art. It's really worth a visit!

And on August 16th, the fairgrounds in the village of Carp host “Art on the Grass”: A Show & sale of fine art and handmade crafts. Organized by the West Carleton Arts Society, it's a wonderful opportunity to see works (and demonstrations!) by local artists and craftspeople. That sounds terrific!
