\"Artist<\/a>Presque Isle, Maine<\/strong>\u2014Come support young, local artists and crafters at a unique Art & Craft Fair on Saturday, April 28, from 10:00 am to 2:00 pm, at the Wintergreen Arts Center.\u00a0 Kids-only vendors will be displaying their creations including artwork, bookmarks, dreamcatchers, jewelry, key chains, magnets, slime, stuffed animals, and much more.<\/p>\n

Admission is free to the public and everyone is welcome.<\/p>\n

The idea for the Fair came when Wintergreen Board Member Danielle Clark overheard a conversation between two youngsters while volunteering at the Mapleton Elementary School during Craft Day.<\/p>\n

\u201cOne student mentioned how they wished they could set up at a craft fair and another added there should be a craft fair just for kids,\u201d said Clark.\u00a0 \u201cThe idea just blossomed.\u201d<\/p>\n

When 11-year-old Faith Herweh, of Presque Isle, learned about the kids-only opportunity for young crafters, she convinced her parents to sponsor her $10 booth.<\/p>\n

\u201cI love making crafts and thought it would be fun to sell them in a craft fair,\u201d said Herweh, whose booth is pet themed.\u00a0 \u201cI\u2019m excited about designing my booth and making money!\u201d<\/p>\n

Vendors must be younger than or 18-years-old, and bring their own table (6-foot maximum).\u00a0 Each vendor needs to find a sponsor\u2014a parent, relative, business, or friend\u2014and fill out a contract.\u00a0 Sorry, no home-baked food items for sale.\u00a0 Interested kids or sponsors may call (207) 762-3576 for more information.<\/p>\n
