22nd Annual Nova Scotia Folk Art Festival
Sunday, August 1, 2010
12-noon - 4pm
Lunenburg War Memorial Arena


The best four hours of fun on the south shore in summer, just got better. The Nova Scotia Folk Art Festival will be celebrating their 22nd anniversary on SUNDAY, AUGUST 1, 2010.


As every year, for the past 20, the show and sale will commence at 12 noon with the count-down... "5, 4, 3, 2, 1"...when the doors open and the rush of sales and viewing begin. Check out the photographs below to feel the energy of this moment!

The atmosphere at the Festival is electric! Colourful art is everywhere, accented by the bright sounds of fiddle music, the auctioneers banter, door prize draws and the enthusiasm of browsers and buyers.
Sponsored by the Lunenburg Heritage Society with the support of the Nova Scotia Folk Art Society, this juried event has a fine and well-earned reputation as a premier festival showcasing and selling the work of our best Nova Scotian folk artists.

The Festival is held at the Lunenburg War Memorial Arena opposite the Curling Club off Green Street. Watch for the long line of enthusiastic participants who begin to arrive at 9:00am for the door opening at noon hour.

If you haven't been to the festival or if you are wondering just "What is Folk Art" check out our website at www.nsfolkartfestival.com

Inspired by the colour and life around us, these sculptured creations, brightly painted carvings, paintings and  hooked rugs conspire to engage the heart as well as the eye. The popular Folk Art Posters, featuring an original work from past festivals, are also for sale and have become collectors pieces themselves.
