October 4, 2025: Barnfest

Join us at Barnfest on October 4th, 2025!

We are so excited to welcome you to Bassett Road for Fabric of Life’s biggest community event and fundraiser of the year! Barnfest features local crafters and artisans, musicians, children’s activities, dancing, and the weaving together of an amazingly vibrant community. All are invited to join us beginning at noon for a variety of live demonstrations, interactive workshops, raffles, a buffet dinner, and a full set of after-dinner music and dancing into the evening.

Try your hand at weaving, learn about natural dyeing or needle felting, watch a herding dog or sheep shearing demonstration, take part in a yodel therapy session, bring your tools for a sharpening lesson, or let the kids try Shelburne Fire Department’s hose down house. Musicians of all levels will have a chance to practice fiddle tricks, join in an Old Timey or Scandinavian fiddle jam, and listen to a variety of musical styles throughout the afternoon.

We are excited to announce that we have partnered with Stone Soup Café for our community supper. Pre-order your meal ticket today!

All are welcome! Suggested Donation: $10 per person
