Last year, the event was canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. One big change this year is, the entire arts and crafts fair will be held outside. There are no indoor vendor options. That's not going to be an issue with the weekend weather forecast which is calling for sunshine Saturday and temperatures in the mid to upper 70s.
According to Explore Hutchinson, the event typically draws crowds of 12,000 or more each year during the two day event.
The arts and crafts fair is free to attend and open to everyone. Liberty Square Park is located on Main Street and Highway 15 in Hutchinson.
