The Minden Maker’s Fair will be overflowing with artisans and creators from 11 a.m. until 4 p.m. Saturday, November 1 at The Farm of Cultural Crossroads, 419 East Union, Minden.

The Minden Maker’s Fair is inspired by the national Maker’s Fair Movement, where artisans and creators come together to sell handmade goods, demonstrate their crafts, and provide fun activities for all. Hosted by Cultural Crossroads of Minden, Webster Parish’s only 501(c)(3) nonprofit arts organization, this event serves our mission to “Unite All People Through the Arts.”

Event Highlights
At the Minden Maker’s Fair, you can expect a vibrant atmosphere filled with handmade creations. From artwork and home goods to clothing, jewelry, pottery, stained glass, and much more, all vendors will personally craft the goods on display. It’s a great opportunity to start your holiday shopping while supporting local artisans!

Attendees will also enjoy a variety of free activities and demonstrations designed to engage and inspire creativity. You can learn about art, create your own, or simply have fun with family and friends.
