The Maker’s Hand: 20th Anniversary Edition

The Maker’s Hand celebrates its 20th anniversary in 2024! From November 8th-10th at Highline Hall, Lehigh Arena in Wellington, experience and take home one-of-a-kind art by artisans from Ontario and Quebec. This year, in addition to incredibly talented new and returning artisans, there will be a small number of visual artists showing and selling paintings, prints and 2D art – perfect for filling any empty spot in your home.

To mark this special anniversary year, we will award every 100th visitor a handmade gift by one of our participating artisans. This could be you!

Open Friday, November 8th and Saturday, November 9th 10 AM-5 PM, and Sunday, November 10th 10 AM-4 PM.  Idle Wild will be on site serving food and beverages all weekend long.

Entry is $5 for unlimited access all weekend long; children under 12 get in for free.

There will be an All Are Welcome Hour on Sunday November 10th from 10-11:30 AM to ensure that people with sensory, mobility, and other disability-related needs can more readily engage with the arts. The lights and music will be dimmed/lowered, exhibitors will be prepared to engage with all visitors, and there is free entry for assistants of persons with a disability. The show will be open to the general public at this time, but it is a traditionally quieter time to visit. There is a wheelchair accessible entrance, washrooms, and wide aisles for ease of movement. Accessible parking is located 5 metres from the Highline Hall entrance.
