The Folk Art Guild A collective of fine craft artisans and curious people in the Finger Lakes region. East Hill Gallery open for the season! Saturdays 11-5 | Sundays 1-5

501(c)3

We are an intentional community and craft center located in the heart of the Finger Lakes in Middlesex, NY. For over 50 years, Guild artisans have been producing fine crafts including pottery, woodworking, weaving, natural fiber clothing and folk toys. Membership includes both non-residents and residents. Residents live on-site year-round, sharing meals and working together in an effort to live more sustainably. The Guild offers education in traditional crafts through classes, residencies, and apprenticeships. The 350-acre farm is home to the East Hill Gallery, open May through October and displaying the work of Guild artists and Romeo Retreat Center, our guest host available for rentals and programs.
