Unity

The Guild of Maine Woodworkers has secured a 20’ x 30’ exhibit space at the Common Ground Country Fair in Unity, Maine September 19-21. This exhibit will be in a larger tent in the Maine Business section of the fair. Guild and MWPA members are invited to share in this exhibit with the intent of promoting the Guild as well as their own businesses (retail sales are allowed and encouraged!). Limited space is still available on a first come, first served basis. The exhibit space is not free, and the cost will be shared by participants. Participants must also be present for most of the event. This is a great opportunity to show your work to a large crowd that has a history of buying Maine made products, including furniture, during the Fair. For more information please contact Guild President Wes Sunderland at 207-625-7000 or Rob Brand of Sebago Furniture at 207-591-4215.
