COSHOCTON, OH – Wood carvings, handmade furniture, pottery and rugs, and other items will be displayed at Historic Roscoe Village during the 32nd annual Apple Butter Stirrin’ Festival October 19-21.
Handmade items will also be sold from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. daily.
One artist of special interest is 11-year-old Carrie Ann Archer, called “a rare talent” by the Ohio Arts and Crafts Guild. Archer has been drawing since she was two years old and began painting with watercolors this past summer under the guidance of her grandmother, a long time craft vendor in Roscoe Village. She was recognized by the Noble County Performers Society as an outstanding artist.
