Shaker Forest Festival September 9, 2006

Held amid a canopy of trees and mulched pathways on the scenic grounds of Seneca Creek State Park, this event offers a respite from the rigors and stresses of daily life. Attendees feel as though they've taken a step back to yesteryear, to a time free of the hustles and bustles of everyday living. One experiences the simple life . . . the "Shaker life" . . . where craftspeople and artists dress in 18th Century- and Shaker-period attire, while demonstrating the skills of their crafts and offering their wares for sale.
