The story

Collingswood Crafts and Fine Art Festival in Collingswood

The Collingswood Crafts and Fine Art Festival is a two-day juried outdoor art show held each August along Haddon Avenue in Collingswood, New Jersey's walkable downtown. Running since 2005, it features roughly 180 to 200 artists selected by jury in media including ceramics, jewelry, painting, photography and fiber art, alongside a separate Artist's Alley for emerging artists, live music, and a raffle tent benefiting a local charity.

Its downtown setting and artist focus make it a useful South Jersey row.

What is special

The part that makes it specific.

01

The place changes

Now past its 20th year, the festival has become one of the signature summer events for a downtown already known for its restaurant row and farmers market, using the same jury process as its Haddonfield counterpart to keep the roughly 200 booths focused on original work rather than resale merchandise

02

The mystery stays covered

Its Artist's Alley on Irvin Avenue sets it apart from similar shows by carving out dedicated space for emerging and student artists alongside free family make-and-take craft activities, giving newer talent a platform next to established exhibitors

03

The city starts moving

A raffle tent stocked with donated pieces from participating artists benefits a local charity each year, tying the festival's commercial side to a philanthropic one, while gentle live music along Haddon Avenue keeps the mood relaxed rather than performance-driven
