First Treasures

First Treasures, Art for Young Collectors – provides an opportunity for young art patrons (ages 4-13) to choose and purchase original artwork at child-affordable prices ($5 or less). This tented venue features a variety of media made available from our Festival artists and craftpersons.

The purpose of the First Treasures tent is to encourage, educate and develop the art patrons of the future. Young art buyers have enjoyed the opportunity to seek out the artists on the grounds to talk about their purchase and find out more about the art and the artists.

A Festival Saturday event, the First Treasures tent is open from 11:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. on Saturday, June 13. Children can pre-register for entrance timeblocks, staggered every 30 minutes. Plan on being in line a minimum of 5-10 minutes before your entrance timeblock starts. Registration for entrance timeblocks begins at 10:00 a.m., Saturday, June 13.
