This is the 4th Annual Roscoe Fine Arts and Crafts Festival. This year
it's on the same great weekend, following the Labor Day Holiday.
 Same
great location -- on the park-like grounds of Cross & Crown Lutheran
Church at the outskirts of Roscoe, IL, just south of the Wisconsin-Illinois
border and one mile from Interstate 90/39.
The grounds have been expanded to include the bordering school yard,
allowing for significant growth this year |

We are reaching out to the best of both worlds, displaying the fine arts
that nearby Rockford shows are known for, and bringing in the best of the
crafts world that encompasses so much of the Northern Illinois-Southern
Wisconsin area. |

 The
combination of both together at one show, yet grouped in smaller "display
villages" by interest, creates a synergy that will draw followers of each to
old favorites, but provide exposure to new and different genres.
The expanded area has a picturesque and park-like atmosphere, able to
accommodate more than 100 artists and craftsmen. |

 The
Roscoe Fall Festival is being held the same weekend, drawing on the
thousands who have come from miles around to that traditional event. |

Earlier registration has been established to better allow inclusion in
various art and crafts calendars. This will also assist us in our
plans for significantly more marketing of this much larger show. We are
encouraging the input and referrals of the artists and craftsmen, as this
will help shape and point the direction of the show.
Don't wait -- things are moving fast this
year and we want you to be a part of it! |
