View Personal BioRita PoliIn the summer of 1982 a few fellow crafters and I held our first Summer Solstice Craft Show on the lawn of the Wells Junior High School. It was our desire to offer crafters a venue to display, demonstrate and sell their handcrafted items to our seasonal visitors and local residents. We wanted to share, promote and celebrate creativity while offering a quality, enjoyable shopping experience. Thanks to the support of our crafters, artisans and the attending public our shows have grown to be three of the most recognizable shows held on the seacoast of Maine.
We are very proud of our shows and hope you will attend one or all of them.
We look forward to seeing you at our shows.Tell a Friend
