EVENT DESCRIPTION

The Wabanaki Winter Market is New England’s largest holiday gathering of Wabanaki artists. This annual event features artists who have received national awards, as well as new artists representing the next generation of weavers.

The event provides the public with an opportunity to purchase Wabanaki art directly from the artists and to learn about these ancient traditions.

Join the Hudson Museum for a day that will showcase one-of-a-kind art forms (basketry, beadwork, wood carving, birchbark items), and maple syrup as well as demonstrations, storytelling, traditional music, drumming and dancing. Something for everyone!

Last year’s Friends of the Hudson Museum raffle basket was made by Kenny Keezer, Passamaquoddy.  Stay tuned for more information on the exciting 2025 raffle! Tickets will be available for purchase at the market.

The Hudson Museum will be open during the event, and visitors are encouraged to explore the Wabanaki Gallery where they can view the work of the ancestors of the contemporary artists.

The Wabanaki Winter Market is FREE and open to the public.
