Arts and Crafts Village

 

 

Sugar Loaf, New York

  

    Historic Sugar Loaf Village is nestled in scenic Warwick Valley, only 60 miles from New York City, and is an interesting mix of practicing artisans, eclectic shops and galleries. Established in the early 1700's, many of the buildings are still being used today. 

 

     Come and stroll our boardwalks, smell the aromas from the candle shop and restaurants. Be sure to pick up your free Visitor's Guide provided by our Chamber of Commerce, and don't forget to check our Calendar for upcoming village events, or visit the many apple orchards and wineries in our area. 

 

    The Sugar Loaf Community Foundation is a non profit organization which, among other projects, represents the group of professional artists and craftspeople who  live and work in this historic village. We are dedicated to preserving the historical and artistic traditions of our hamlet. We sponsor this website, and promoted The Hambletonian Fine Arts Show & Competitions, in 1999, 2000 and 2001, which were open to fine artists and craftsmen in the tri state area. The Foundation also awarded Artistic Merit Scholarships to deserving art students in local schools.

 

    Our artisans and shop owners strive to encourage new artists and interesting shops to come to Sugar Loaf, put down some roots and join our community. We are committed to maintaining our way of life for ourselves and for our children, and we want Sugar Loaf to remain an oasis, a safe haven for people to visit and relax, and to enjoy our little slice of history.

 

Our shops are open year round, hours vary, but most shops are open Wednesday - Sundays 11-6.
