The 2024 Rahway Craft and Art Fair is set to return on Saturday, Nov. 2, offering residents and neighbors a chance to “start their holiday shopping early with unique, handmade gifts. Mayor Raymond A. Giacobbe and the Rahway City Council invite the public to join them at the Rahway Recreation Center from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. for this free event.

Over 65 local crafters, artisans, and fine artists will showcase their diverse range of artistic expressions, including paintings, photography, mixed media, jewelry, pottery, and quilts. The fair emphasizes handmade items, ensuring visitors will find one-of-a-kind treasures with no mass-produced products.

“We are thrilled to host the Rahway Craft and Art Fair once again,” Giacobbe said. “This event not only showcases the incredible talent of our local artists but also provides a platform for them to connect with the community. It’s a celebration of creativity and a testament to the thriving arts scene in Rahway.”
