Artist Jessica Callihan, photographed here by Laura Peirpont, is just one of the many artists participating in this year’s festival. Callihan began her love affair with fly fishing through her experiences with Project Healing Waters, which helps wounded veterans rehabilitate through fly fishing and fly tying.
Callihan has managed to marry her love for the quiet sport with her passion for art. Her work includes everything from original oil painting and gift cards to matted prints. Stop by her booth to meet her and learn what she has created that might look great on that bare wall at home.
Numerous painters, sculptors, and metalworkers will be at this year’s festival, including Mary Kay aka “the Fish Lady,” Dave Krupa Angling Art, The Forged Fly, and Carden Farms.
