For many adults, the Exhibit Hall Tent is the highlight of the fair, where hundreds
of home-baked, home-grown and home-sewn items are on display as people vie with friends
and neighbors for ribbons and prizes. There are dozens of entry categories for both
children and adults who grow fruits and vegetables, sew, knit and quilt, paint, sketch
and photograph and more. Local gardeners, bakers, artists, knitters, canners, and
crafters bring their entries into the exhibit hall for judging for ribbons and cash
premiums. An especially popular display is the pumpkin decorating contest. The fair
is held rain or shine; the hall is a great place to take refuge from a shower and
peruse everything from flowers to photos.
For information on how you can participate, see the Participation pages.
All Exhibit Hall Premiums, Animal Premiums and Prize Monies are funded by the Bolton
Fair.
