Downtown Andover will transform into a vibrant open-air marketplace Saturday as the 49th Annual Crafts in the Park returns to the Town Green at Chestnut and Bartlet Streets. The event runs from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM, rain or shine, and admission is free.
The juried craft fair features over 200 artisans from across New England, offering a diverse array of handmade goods—from jewelry and pottery to textiles, woodwork, and fine art. The event is a cherished tradition for both locals and visitors, providing an opportunity to shop for unique gifts just in time for Mother’s Day, graduations, and spring weddings.
Beyond shopping, attendees can enjoy live music performances, including a set by the Dixie Cookbook Band, and savor a variety of food options from local vendors. Flower sales will also be available, adding a splash of color to the festivities.
Proceeds from the event support Christ Church’s mission and outreach programs, benefiting service and educational organizations within the local community.
