Join us for a day of music, food, your favorite knitting and crocheting friends, plus a wonderfully curated show of incredible makers!  Last year we dipped our toe into this event at the beautiful Rose Hill Farm with a Small marketplace, and live music.

This year, we have moved our event to a larger venue so we can accommodate more people and more vendors. We will have delicious food vendors, amazing music makers, a gorgeous Hudson River venue to relax in and all the wooly and wool friendly goods and yarns you could ever want from all your favorites.  In addition to our amazing makers/vendors, we will have a full lineup of musical artists joining us (including our own Little Fox duo, The Flying Sulsers!) with musical production by our friends at Jalopy Theatre and School of Music. Music will begin at noon.   AND...Shelli Martinez of ShelliCan will once again be joining us as the Mistress of FUN to keep us all laughing throughout the day :)  We'll have the same great food trucks as last year (Misto and Oyster Party) with the addition of several new trucks and few more sweet options to round out the menu. 

 

Ticket Info:

• Preview Party: Thursday from 4-7 pm.

This year, we are planning a Preview Party on the Thursday evening before the market.  Tickets will include a spread of hors d'oeuvres, an awesome merch bag (worth $100), live music, early shopping at the marketplace and a cash bar.  It also includes entry to the Friday market after 2 pm (half day ticket).

• Friday Event: 10 am-6 pm.

Our tickets for Friday will be either full day or half day. We hope you will stay for the day but if you would like a shorter stay, you can come for the afternoon.  Tickets for full day are from 10 am-6 pm and half day is from 2-6 pm. We will have a staggered entry with tickets for 10 am or 11 am.  You can enter later than your time, but not before.

• Parking:

There is plenty of parking but to avoid long lines waiting to get parked, I recommend ride sharing as much as possible.  When you purchase your tickets, you will also need to purchase a parking pass.  Handicapped parking is also available.

Parking is limited so we are hoping that everyone will come with their car FULL!  If you are the one driving for your party of 4 (yes, I would like to have each car full), you must purchase a parking ticket in addition to your entry ticket ticket.  We will be creating a discord chat group so people can connect for ride-sharing and connecting prior to the event.  If you have accessibility needs please let us know by reaching out to us by email at hello@woolenaffair.com. A Woolen Affair seeks to ensure an accessible, inclusive, and welcoming space, and asks that all attendees treat each other with dignity & respect. 

We are looking forward to gathering with you all and having a fun, safe, wool and music filled day! The theme for this year is Down by the Riverside. (More on that soon) Above all, we want this event to make you feel good, leaving you smiling all the way home with a full belly and a full heart.  We want it to be the perfect start to a beautiful weekend at the beloved NY State Sheep & Wool Festival.

WE  CAN'T  WAIT  TO  SEE  YOU!
