13th Annual Village Renaissance Faire

VILLAGE LIBRARY OF WRIGHTSTOWN’S 13TH ANNUAL RENAISSANCE FAIRE – the Mystical world of merriment, wonder, and imaginary creatures come alive one weekend this September in your own backyard. The 3 Musketeers, a Rabbit Stampede,  flying fruit & melons are just a glimpse into our fantastical world where not only do dragons fly, people breath fire, men bend metal, and mystical creatures of roam, but in the end civility, responsibility and respect of each other and the environment  reign. HUZZAH!!!!

A two-day community celebration providing a diverse, interactive, and fun-see-full approach to the visual and performing arts through live performances, exhibitions, and free lessons.  Our one of a kind  family-friendly event features hands-on learning experiences through audience participation, interactive play, free workshops, and free crafts all within a re-created historical context. Also in today’s economy how can anyone dispute the pittance of $5.00 for such a diverse event offering FUN for people of all ages.
