Occoquan announces return of fall craft show Sept. 24 and 25

Occoquan's Fall Arts & Crafts Show is Saturday and Sunday, September 24 and 25, 2022. This year, the town will expand the festival with new offerings, and with this comes an opportunity to involve community partners in this historically well-attended event.

Emerging Artists
The Town will offer a scholarship program for a general category of contemporary artworks created by new artists and creators. This is an opportunity for businesses that are new to selling their creations and have not yet experienced a major craft show. Art or craft businesses that began in 2020 or later are invited to apply and may participate at a reduced rate if accepted.

Spaces are limited and all applications will be juried for these spots. For more information, contact the Events Director at [email protected] or see the Emerging Artist Application online. Emerging Artist Applications are due by September 5, 2022.

As I tell my patients, we are in this together.”

Jay Tyroler, MD considers his patients quite literally as family. “I believe there’s nothing more honorable than helping patients when they’re sick, or scared, or feeling vulnerable, and I care for them exactly as I would my loved ones.” Whether for a specialist referral, urgent health issue or ongoing follow up, “My patients know I’m always just a phone call away.”
