A Wonderful Crowd

Guilford Art Center would like to thank the Town of Guilford, its citizens, businesses, and our many volunteers who helped to make the 61st annual Craft Expo on the Guilford Green another wonderful event. The beautiful weather this year certainly benefited Craft Expo, which brought a wonderful crowd to the heart of our town. They enjoyed the extraordinary array of handmade American crafts, as well as other town attractions, restaurants, and shops.

Guilford Art Center very much appreciates the patronage of the thousands of community members and visitors who attend the event, as they are making a difference by their support of the arts. Proceeds from Craft Expo support Guilford Art Center’s educational and community programs, which serve Guilford, the shoreline, and the state of Connecticut. Our fantastic corps of more than 100 volunteers who help make the show run are also instrumental in the success of the event. They not only dedicate their time to help manage the show, but also serve as important ambassadors for our town and its cultural riches.

We also very much appreciate the financial support from our many sponsors and the support of the Guilford town departments with which we work: the Police, Parks & Recreation, Building, Health, Public Works, and Fire departments, and especially the Selectmen’s Office.
