Mount Vernon Colonial Fair

George Washington's Mount Vernon recently invited guests to experience an 18th-Century Marketplace by stepping back in time at Colonial Market & Fair, featuring food and wares made by colonial artisans. Guests had the opportunity to take in the sights and sounds of Mount Vernon's 12-acre field, chat with colonial artisans selling traditional handcrafted food and wares, enjoy live music from the colonial era, watch as expert artisans demonstrate period crafting techniques and meet General Washington in the General's Tent.
