The Favorite Annual Apple Pie Crafts Fair is one of New England's longest running craft fairs! Every year, more than 3000 New Englanders make their way to Newport from all around the state of New Hampshire, and New England to enjoy 100+ booths of handmade crafts, including pottery, woodworking, glass, fiber arts and more. The fair also features live music, and the famous apple pie contest & sale.

Apple Pie Contest

Do you have an award-winning apple pie recipe? Put it to the test at the favorite Apple Pie Contest! The only rules stipulate that the main ingredient of pies must be apples, and that only the first twelve pies entered will be considered for judging in the contest. No entry fee. One entry per family, please.

Pie Sale

Pies of all kinds are baked by members of the Arts Center community and sold to benefit Arts Center programs. We are happy to accept donations of all kinds of pies-not just apple! Other fruit pies and gluten free options are always very popular.

Pie drop off is taking place:

Friday, Aug. 25th - 11am-4pm at the Library Arts Center Gallery or Saturday, Aug. 26th - 8-10am at the big red & white tent on the Newport Town Common.
