The Sailfest organizers and John Johnson, a well-known art dealer who owns Thames River Gallery, are excited to work with New England Woodcarvers and will promote our exhibit in their publicity campaign. This is your chance to show your work in a high-quality studio. John can work with you if you want to sell items or just exhibit them. He can appraise and help you establish prices if you wish.  Sailfest is visited by over 300,000 people. Banks Street and others will be closed to vehicle traffic so thousands of pedestrians can walk around and view all the venues. 

Online registration ends June 30th. Arrive at Sailfest and the Thames River Gallery with your carvings early, so it will be ready for the heavy tourist traffic which begins in the afternoon.
