Sawtooth Mountain Mamas Arts and Craft Fair
Join us for the 41st Annual
Sawtooth Mountain Mamas Arts and Craft Fair
!
Saturday, July 15: 10am – 6pm
Sunday, July 16: 9am – 4pm
You don’t need to be an artist or crafty to attend the Mountain Mamas Arts and Crafts Fair. You just need to have an appreciation for the arts and food!
The Mountain Mamas have been a pillar to the Stanley community since 1976. These amazing Mamas are not only a social network for the women of the valley, they raise funds and support local organizations. They provide college or post-high school scholarships each year to anyone who attended the Stanley School. They support the area sports, winter activities, Stanley Library, Meditation Chapel, Salmon River Clinic, EMTs, Stanley Museum and more.
The major fund raiser is their annual Sawtooth Mountain Mamas Arts and Crafts Fair.
Reasons to attend the Arts and Crafts Fair:
- Shop, eat and meet new people!
- Over 140 vendors from the Northwest.
- Featuring paintings, photographs, jewelry, soap, spices, quilts, woodwork and so much more.
- Food vendors (who doesn’t love Fair food!). New vendors this year include pizza and crepes.
- 1st Annual Cookie Contest for amateur bakers – enter your most delectable cookies to win prizes.
- Most of the profits go directly to the community.
- It’s fun for all ages!
Local musicians will entertain fair-goers all weekend long. Wear your dancing shoes!
Saturday and Sunday Morning: Dewey, Pickette and Howe
Saturday Afternoon: Jaz
Sunday Afternoon: Dick Polley
Music to our ears – Mountain Mama Deanna Sue has been known to softly sing the chorus of ‘Paradise’ with Dewey, Pickette and Howe. Will she grace the stage again this year?
Word of mouth among the vendors has resulted in over 140 booths at the Fair. And it’s not too late to showcase your talent as a vendor and become a part of this fun event in Stanley.
While some may consider the Mountain Mamas to be Superwomen, the Fair is a larger undertaking than they can do alone. What would make the Fair a better experience for you? Volunteering at the Fair!
Please contact the Sawtooth Mountain Mamas if you would like to be a vendor or volunteer.
Don’t miss this opportunity to buy direct from the artists and to help raise funds for the Sawtooth Mountain Mamas so they can continue supporting the Stanley community.
We invite you to come to the Fair and stay for the weekend!
When you see these Mountain Mamas, please give them a round of applause for all that they do in the Stanley community.
