Every fall, the Hudson Valley has a moment. Crisp air, golden leaves, and one event that brings it all together: Artriders Fall Crafts at Lyndhurst. Known as Westchester’s favorite festival, this celebration of creativity, food, and family fun transforms the iconic Lyndhurst estate in Tarrytown into an unforgettable weekend destination.
A Marketplace Like No Other
More than 250 makers from across the region gather here, each offering something you truly can’t find anywhere else. From intricate jewelry and stunning ceramics to cozy textiles, bold woodwork, and inventive art, the festival is a treasure trove for collectors, casual shoppers, and anyone who loves craftsmanship with heart. The best part? You get to meet the artists themselves, see their process up close, and take home pieces that carry a story.
Foodie Heaven on the Hudson
Shopping works up an appetite, and Fall Crafts delivers in the tastiest way possible. Expect wood-fired pizza, smoky BBQ, fresh seafood, juicy burgers, creamy ice cream, and plenty of vegetarian options. Local distilleries and wineries pour tastings throughout the weekend, and yes—the ever-popular mobile beer and wine truck is rolling back in. Whether you’re grabbing a quick bite between booths or sitting down for a full meal with a view of the Hudson, the food scene here is reason enough to come.
Family Fun That’s Actually Fun
This isn’t just an event for adults. Kids (and kids at heart) get their own lineup of excitement with interactive puppet theater, face painting, arts and crafts, and live demos where they can get hands-on. The stilt-walking balloon artist is always a showstopper, and the energy around the family area makes the whole festival feel like a community celebration. (Children’s activities are Saturday and Sunday only—so plan accordingly if you’re bringing little ones.)
Explore Lyndhurst’s Iconic Grounds
One ticket gets you more than just the craft show—you also get access to Lyndhurst’s 67 sprawling acres. Stroll sweeping lawns, wander the rose garden, peek into the historic carriage house, or relax under century-old specimen trees that you literally won’t find anywhere else. And if you’re up for more exploring, mansion tours are available for an additional fee. The Neo-Gothic masterpiece includes one of America’s first bowling alleys and jaw-dropping interiors that feel like stepping back in time.
Why It’s a Must-Go
Fall Crafts at Lyndhurst isn’t just an event—it’s an experience. It’s the crisp smell of autumn in the air, the joy of discovering your new favorite maker, the buzz of live demos, the taste of small-batch gourmet treats, and the energy of families, friends, and creatives coming together. It’s shopping, eating, playing, exploring, and making memories in one of the Hudson Valley’s most scenic spots.
