✨ The Maker’s Hand returns this year in a NEW LOCATION! ✨
Taking place November 7th-9th, 2025, this year’s show is moving to the County Arts Lab, located in the historic Armoury Building at the heart of Picton’s vibrant Main Street, and will feature 25 booths inside The Prince Edward County Arts Council's County Arts Lab and in the adjoining Armoury Atrium.
With a new space comes new shopping hours! On Friday, November 7th, doors will be open at 1:00 PM until 8:00 PM with a special “Sip & Shop” event beginning at 5:00 PM - attendees will receive a complimentary glass of wine or a non-alcoholic beverage (while supplies last) and up to 20% off from participating exhibitors.
Stay for the day and grab lunch at nearby restaurants like Luso Bites and Crepe Escape, located in the Armoury, or shop into the evening and indulge in the incredible prix-fixe menus offered at participating restaurants during Countylicious.
A note on accessibility: The Armoury’s Main Street entrance is wheelchair accessible, and accessible parking is located in front of the building on Main Street. There are accessible washrooms located just outside the County Arts Lab, plus wide aisles for ease of movement.
Our All are Welcome hour takes place on Sunday November 9th from 10-11 AM, a designated time to ensure that people with sensory, mobility, and other disability-related needs can more readily engage with the arts. The lights and music are lowered, and exhibitors are prepared to engage with visitors of all abilities. The show will be open to the general public at this time, but it is a traditionally quieter time to visit.
Entry is $5 for unlimited access all weekend. Free entry for children under 12 and for assistants of persons with a disability.
