The Craft Guild of Nevada County will be having their Winterfaire at the Nevada County Fairgrounds October 26-27. There will be 45 artisans with a wide variety of handcrafted items and featuring many new artists. Yummy food will be provided by Clarky’s BBQ, Cousins Maine Lobster and Nevada City Crepes.
The Craft Guild has revitalized Winterfaire to offer a new and improved experience. The Guild’s motto is a show for artists by artists. A juried event reflects their commitment to elevating and making it the premier art show of the season. Here’s an example of some of the new artisans that will be at the Winter Faire.
Mindy Oberne will be featuring ceramics made with her unique style of origami construction. The spiral form of this 2 piece Party Plate is carried through to bowls, vases, cups, plates, platters and bakeware.
Suzanne Christ Burr is a fiber artist employing the techniques of Nuno Felting, Wet Felting and Shibori to her Wearable Art expressions. She finds great inspiration from natures’ kaleidoscope of colors, and design patterns.
Katie Wolff I got hooked on the JOY OF GIVING when I started doing portraits and experienced tears of happiness when I gifted my paintings.
Kaylee Salas is an electroform artist who makes real bugs, bone, plants and gemstones into jewelry by plating them in metal.
Lindsey Nick Ceramics is wheel thrown, functional ceramics from her home studio in Grass Valley. At Winterfaire, she will be offering mugs, plates, coffee pour overs, vases, butter bells, teapots, lidded jars and bowls of all sizes. Many of her pieces are hand carved with designs inspired by nature.
