Welcome

Australia’s premier arts and crafts event, the Tasmanian Craft Fair, will be held on the weekend of October 30-November 2, 2009. Spread over 13 different venues in the picturesque township of Deloraine in northern Tasmania, about 200 exhibitors will display their finest wares and share their techniques in this annual event.

This year’s Centre of Excellence exhibition will be Glass Art, curated by Douglas McManus, a lecturer at Melbourne’s RMIT University. Works will be sourced from some of the world’s best craftspeople, and glass art training courses and demonstrations will run throughout the Craft Fair.

This year will also feature a specialist plant exhibition at the Showgrounds venue and an expanded gourmet food area showcasing the state’s finest producers and including a working exhibition by Tasmanian Micro Brewers.
