This year was my fourth year at LARAC. It has
consistently been a very good show for me, and I
am also consistently impressed with the quality
of the exhibitors. The show has a loyal clientele
who will come back to you year after year. I have
met some of my best customers here.   Sue Cobb,

Consistent, loyal crowds.
Strong, repeat buyers.
"I try to set an anticipated sales goal for
every show of the 38 a year that we do.  LARAC
far exceeded the goal that I had set for this
year, which was based on last year.  So much for
a bad economy."   Diane and Chris Hoyt, Shady
Pine Studios

It is our favorite event - great
crowds, strong sales, many familiar customers,
and fun! And 2008 saw more fine
artist participation!    Tom Ryan and Melissa
Ryan, Watercolors by Tom Ryan

"LARAC sets high standards for craftsmanship, and
runs a very well organized show.  The customers
understand this is a quality show, and come
ready to buy new and interesting art and
craftwork.  That's the best possible
combination!"  Marilyn Desmond, Just Smashing

I am absolutely awed by the enthusiasm shown by
the people who attend this fair.I can't say
enough good things about the treatment of the
Craftspeople/Artists by the Arts Council, from
the rest rooms to the spaciousness of the display
area, to the parking spaces, they are 100
available, all the time. This is one of my
favorite spring fairs in the North East. The
people turn out for this show in droves, and they
come to buy. Linda Barbadoro, Serenity Bamboo
