Simcoe County Arts and Crafts Association: Celebration of Arts & Crafts Day
The Annual Celebration of Arts and Crafts at the Simcoe County Museum is a unique event for visitors to watch demonstrations of different arts and crafts. Demonstrations are hands-on allowing attendees the opportunity to try their hand at many different medias. It's also an opportunity for artists and craftspeople to purchase supplies, many of which are increasingly difficult to find. For 70 years the Simcoe County Arts and Crafts Association has been encouraging and sharing ideas in the arts and providing a market and showcase for their members. 
Simcoe County Museum, Midhurst
Admission is free
