No gift is as wondrous as a thoughtfully crafted personalized trinket for dear friends and family. The esteemed President of the festival herself creates “faire favors” for performers and vendors alike, a heartfelt way to express gratitude. Thus, we hold these gifts in high regard.

We kindly urge that trinket trading be approached with reverence for the labor woven into handmade treasures. Should a faire favor be bestowed upon you by a vendor, performer, or patron, cherish it.
