The 39th annual Arrow Rock Heritage Craft Festival will be held Oct. 13-14.

"The Heritage Craft Festival is unique among fall craft shows because it features the kinds of arts and crafts that would have been performed daily by your great-grandparents," said Sandy Selby, chairperson of the Historic Arrow Rock Council, the event's sponsor.

Nineteenth century crafts on display will include spinning, weaving, doll making, blacksmithing, flintknapping, rug hooking, candle dipping, apple butter making, quilting and dozens more.
