NW Works is honored to have been selected as the beneficiary for the First-Ever Lost Arts Festival at La Grange Family Farm on Sunday, April 12, 2026 from 10 AM- 4 PM. The Lost Arts Festival is a collaborative effort between Carter Hall Farm, Black Valley Creative, and La Grange Family Farm— three partners united by a shared love of heritage, creativity, and community.

Set on the beautiful and historic La Grange Family Farm, this day invites you to slow down and reconnect with practices rooted in patience, care, and craft. From fiber arts, woodworking, and basketry to beekeeping, blacksmithing, and animal husbandry, you’ll find time-honored traditions being shared, demonstrated, and kept alive.

This is a celebration of makers and doers. Of the quiet wisdom passed from hand to hand. Of skills shaped by close relationships with land, animals, and community.

The festival is currently welcoming vendors, demonstrators, and workshop leaders who are passionate about sharing traditional crafts, agricultural knowledge, and hands-on experiences. If you create, teach, or practice a skill grounded in heritage and care, please consider applying to be a vendor. Be sure to stay up to date with the event through the Facebook Event page.
