The art fair features all original work of the artists’ own creations, including painting, ceramics, jewelry, photography, weaving, clothing, sculpture and other media. “Always a highlight of the summer activities, with the scenic backdrop of the Pentwater Harbor, the fair gets rave reviews from both artists and visitors alike,” states a press release from the Pentwater Jr. Women’s Club.

“The Pentwater Jr. Women’s Club is excited to be back this year and welcomes visitors to shop the unique variety of art. To enhance your experience, the club has added music from the Third Coast Swing Band, children’s art activities, and a Scoop for Jewels fundraiser benefiting the Pentwater community.

“Third Coast Swing Band is based out of Ludington. Their music is heavily influenced by jazz of the 1930s and 40s. The band specializes in the styles of Gypsy Swing, Gypsy Bossa, Bolero, French Musette and more. They will be performing in the gazebo, in the center of the Village Green Park, from 12:30-2:30 p.m.

“There is no charge for the children’s art activities, held from 11 a.m. to noon and 3-4 p.m, near the gazebo. All children must be accompanied by an adult.

“You’ll also have the opportunity to Scoop for Jewels from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. For a $10 donation, adults and children, alike, will delight in the opportunity to hunt for treasures with this ‘fun’raiser for Pentwater.

“Admission to the fair is free. Refreshments are available in the Village Green, provided by the Pentwater Service Club Duncan Wagon, along with several unique restaurants and bars within walking distance.
