Colonial Craft Fair

Enjoy the sights, sounds, and smells of colonial New England at Marblehead Museum’s 1st Annual Colonial Craft Fair! Stroll in the Lee Mansion gardens and meet skilled artisans and historic reenactors as they demonstrate crafts from a time gone by. Learn how shoes were made by a master shoemaker, or try your hand at copperplate printing with an accomplished printmaker. Chat with members of Glover’s Marblehead Regiment or see 18th-century food being prepared by a Culinary Historian. See how modern craftspeople keep historic traditions alive.
