Welcome to the blog of the Nova Scotia Fibre Arts Festival. The 16th Annual NSFAF will take place October 14-18, 2025.

If you’re looking for a little fibre in your creative diet, then this is the festival for you!
New for us this year - but not new in the town of Amherst! We have some amazing architecture, here's your chance to see a few close up and decorated in some beautiful handcrafts. Tickets are $15 per person and will be available soon. All funds raised will go to support the Cumberland Care Hospice.
