The Holzen Arts and Crafts Market, now in its 41st year and held on the first weekend in October, is known far beyond the borders of the stork village. The market gets its special flair from the artisans scattered throughout the streets and courtyards, Holzen vendors with agricultural products, and the various culinary offerings. This year, almost 70 exhibitors are expected to showcase their craftsmanship and creative work. As in previous years, a wide range of authentic handicrafts combined with artistic elements awaits many interested visitors. Skilfully and lovingly crafted everyday objects, decorative items and ornaments made from a wide variety of materials will be on display. The colorful variety of ceramics, jewelry, clothing, woodwork, painting, photography, cards, and textile art is what makes the market in Holzen so special. Basketry, floristry, sculptures, and soaps are also a must. There will be plenty to browse and discover, and several new exhibitors will be coming to the market in Holzen.
