Larkinville is the perfect setting for the 2026 Jack Craft Fair, which was founded by Sam Epps and Khrista Tabak. The event was built specifically as a “makers fair” to showcase independent, grassroots Western New York artisans. Click here to browse vendors.
The curation of the fair focuses heavily on non-traditional trades, featuring everything from bookbinders and block printers to dice makers, glass blowers, and taxidermy alongside traditional ceramics and textiles, according to the founders.
