Nearly 80 juried artists and makers will feature handmade goods at the one-day event, supporting local creative businesses. Admission is $4, with free entry for children 12 and under.
The Handcrafters Spring Fling is set to take place on March 22 at the Plymouth Arts & Recreation Complex (PARC) in Downtown Plymouth. This annual event, now in its 47th year, brings together nearly 80 juried Midwestern artists and makers offering quality handmade goods. Ranked among the Top 50 Contemporary Craft Shows in the country, the one-day-only exhibition runs from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. at 650 Church St.
Executive director Danielle Golinski emphasizes the event's role in fostering creativity: “You’re not just buying a product, you’re supporting late nights in the studio, years refining a craft and the courage it takes to build a creative business.” The show highlights items that help refresh homes for spring while bolstering small businesses across Michigan.
PARC serves as the venue for this juried showcase, which focuses on handmade products from regional talents. Visitors can expect a variety of artisanal works, from decor to functional pieces, all selected for their quality and originality.
