Fat Goose Craft Collective

Fat Goose Craft Collective The Fat Goose Craft Collective is committed to creation of opportunities for craftspeople to exhibit/sell work and for the public to access handmade goods.

We use a not-for-profit model, are volunteer-driven, and are run by craftspeople for craftspeople. What is Fat Goose, you ask? Heading into its thirteenth season, Fat Goose is a much anticipated holiday institution on the Kingston public's calendar. It’s a really hip, volunteer, collectively-run, community-oriented Christmas fair devoted to providing successful opportunities for young and emerging

Kingston artisans to showcase and sell work. We place an emphasis on locally made work, unique and original ideas, high quality of product and depth of process, and strong diversity in craft disciplines.
