Omemee Craft Shows Offer True Canadian Souvenirs
People seeking Canadian souvenirs, often purchase a trinket with the word “Canada” stuck on it; proudly take it home, then find the same item at their corner shop with the name of their own country emblazoned across it. We will help you avoid that embarrassment with our listings of local artisans, markets, and craft shows.
A true souvenir is a unique, one-of-a-kind creation made by people from the place you are visiting,and perhaps even tailored to your specifications. Where can you find such a treasure?
In Omemee! Omemee and area artists and craftsmen create unique items,offering them for sale at local craft shows, and sometimes further afield as well. In the coming weeks, we aim to bring you glimpses into some of the crafts, and artistry produced by our local people, which you can hope to see at area craft sales and market. Where possible, we will also provide the ability for readers to make online purchases.
