(Wellfleet, Mass…June 11, 2016) Wellfleet Shellfish Promotion and Tasting, Inc. (SPAT) – the non-profit group that brings you the annual Wellfleet OysterFest – will host another quality arts and crafts event in two weeks. The SummerFair, rated one of the top three craft shows on Cape Cod, will take place on Eastham’s Windmill Green just off Route 6 on Wednesday and Thursday, July 20 and 21 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., rain or shine. The Fair features 60 of the finest local and regional artisans as well as fresh local food. The event is free and open to the public.

The SummerFair will showcase a wide variety of artistic creations such as illustration, painting, jewelry, ceramics, clothing, glass and much more! Enjoy food from The Local Scoop, Porky’s BBQ, Wicked Good Kettle Korn, and a raw bar operated by Polaris Oyster Farm of Eastham. SPAT will have a booth where attendees can learn about shellfishing and aquaculture and the organization’s commitment to preserve the industry. The event is sponsored by MA Frazier Enterprises, The Boston Globe and Love, Live, Local. Two of the sponsors will also have displays. The Boston Globe will offer special subscriptions and Love, Live, Local will let people know about all of the happenings on Cape Cod.

“Wellfleet SPAT is grateful to the Town of Eastham for the opportunity to use the Windmill Green. We recognize that the use of this public space is a privilege and we will make sure we leave the Green in better condition than we found it”, says SummerFair Coordinator Deirdre Oringer.
