CONNOQUENESSING TWP — A month and a half after the conclusion of the Butler Farm Show, the grounds came back to life Friday for the first Arts and Crafts Autumn Festival, which continues through Sunday, Sept. 22.

The organizer, Family Festivals Association, is based in Greensburg, and regularly runs events in the southwest part of Pennsylvania. However, according to show manager Trisha Cusick, this is the first time they’ve journeyed into Butler County, and they hope to come back often.

“The response from the community has been just absolutely embracing and welcoming,” Cusick said. “We’re hoping to be able to build on this each year to be able to return for a fall festival in September each year.”

The festival features art and goods ranging from painting to pottery, from jewelry to sports memorabilia, and from home décor to candles.
