Just when it feels like we're stuck in January forever, The Corners of Brookfield announced “Arts, Crafts & Drafts.” Perfect timing.

The town center’s first-ever art festival, debuting in partnership with Amdur Productions and Discover Brookfield, takes place Saturday, June 11 and Sunday, June 12.

The festival will highlight 75 local artists, makers and artisans showcasing and selling clothes, candles, home décor, jewelry, works of art and more.

“There is so much talent in the Town of Brookfield and beyond and we can’t wait to see the local artists’ and makers’ masterpieces. This is sure to be a fantastic weekend with art, music and local treats,” said Anna Antoine, Tourism Director at Discover Brookfield, the presenting sponsor of Arts, Crafts & Drafts.

Live music, food and beverage vendors, including samples from local craft breweries, will also be on site.

Artists and crafters are invited to register for a booth until Feb. 1. Go here for more information. 

“We’re thrilled to be bringing this family-friendly event to the town center this summer,” said Chelsea Roessler, director of marketing and events at The Corners of Brookfield. “We can’t wait to celebrate the talents of our local makers and we encourage anyone who is interested to sign up now while booths are still available.”

“Arts, Crafts & Drafts” runs Saturday, June 11 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Sunday, June 12 from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.
