PULTNEYVILLE HOMECOMING FESTIVAL

July 17th & 18th - 2010

Pultneyville, NY

On July 17th, the Pultneyville Historical Society will kick off it's 53rd annual Homecoming Festival. This year, in association with the local businesses in Pultneyville, we will be hosting a day of fine Antiques, Art, Food, Wine and Jazz along the streets of Pultneyville. Start off your visit by enjoying your ride through rural Wayne County, looking at the developing fruit growing on rows and rows of trees as you enter this historic hamlet. Begin by browsing the wares of antique dealers located under the big tent on the lawn of the Good Old Days Country Shop and also situated under shading maples in historic Centennial Park at the corner of Lake Road and Hamilton Street. Stroll up Mill Street, stepping back in time as you view the vintage cars on display as you head toward The Landing. Enjoy your view of Pultneyville Harbor before you enter Artisan's Loft at The Landing to take in the "Positively Pultneyville" art show. Both the Antique and Art segments of the festival kick off at 10:00 am while the Primitive & Folk Art Gathering at the Good Old Days kicks off at 8:00 am.
The Food and Farmer's Market starts at 11:00 with the official start of the Wine and Jazz segments kicking off at the completion of the annual Homecoming Parade at 12:00 noon. The center of town will be closed off to traffic at noon to make room for the new Wine & Jazz festival. Advance Tickets to the Wine and Jazz portion of the festival will cost $15, $20 at the door. Your ticket will get you 20 tastings from the various wineries set up in town. Everything else in the Homecoming Festival is free of charge. There are well marked Parking Lots scattered around the Hamlet and a courtesy shuttle will be available to transport attendees to and from the various attractions and parking areas.
