Best of Vermont Showcase

The Vermont Crafts Council would like to announce that the following members have work on exhibit in Cabot Creamery's Best of Vermont Exhibit taking place at the Winter Garden in Manhattan on August 16 and 17. This exhibit showcases fine and creative Vermont products and is presented in connection with the arrival of the Lois McClure, a duplicate of a canal schooner built by the Lake Champlain Maritime Museum. This type of boat routinely carried goods between Vermont and New York City in the 1800s. In connection with celebrating the voyage of the Lois McClure, Cabot is presenting other high quality Vermont products in this innovative project.

Before and after the event, the work of exhibitors can be seen and ordered through visiting Cabot's web site at http://www.cabotcheese.com.
