Market Day Craft Fair at the Van Wyck Homestead Museum

Celebrate the local craftspeople as they offer their masterfully hand-crafted wares on the grounds of the Historic Van Wyck Homestead Museum. Crafters will arouse your senses with colorful pottery, soft knit items, stunning gifts and aromatic skin care products. If it rains on Saturday, the event will be held on Sunday. The Fishkill Historical Society will provide a concession of culinary delights, including the Fishkill Historical Society's Famous made-to-order Dutch apple fritters, along with soups, chili, hot dogs and wonderful baked goods.

During your visit, enjoy a tour of the homestead, a Dutch colonial house from the early 1700s, and hear about how craftspeople of the past kept Fishkill humming while it served as a headquarters of the Northern Department of the Continental Army's supply depot during the Revolutionary War. Guided tours of the homestead are held Saturdays and Sundays, 1–4 p.m., from June to October. Self-guided tours of the grounds are available every day from dawn until dusk.
