Here are some opening day shots of our newest location at the New York Renaissance Faire in Tuxedo Park! It was great to meet so many new people! Tucked just around the corner is Crow Nouveau with a little fae grotto nestled between us, that Dragon Folk Studios started years ago, and we have the privilege of carrying on. We are looking forward to welcoming you soon on your visit.

It’s opening day for both shops on our first mornings as part of the New York Renaissance Faire!

You can also find us this weekend at our closing weekend in Sterling

Or join us at the Bristol Faire. It’s the first time we’ve had three shows open simultaneously and five shops running. We are haggard but really proud of ourselves and our team that’s making it possible.

Arleen: We leave wands unloaded. Because, well…people.
Customer: Yeah Olivander did blow up his shop a lot.
Arleen: I feel like after that many years, he’d have a handle on that. And is there Wizarding liability insurance? What would that umbrella policy look like? Does Lloyds of London just say - “we know there are wizards. Absolutely no, thank you and good day”-?

Arleen: I wonder what dining store we will go to tonight.
Gracy:…restaurant?
Arleen:…..yeah…I should hydrate

We have some very exciting news to share with everyone. Starting this season, both Broomhilde and Crow Nouveau will be debuting as a part of the New York Renaissance Faire, in Tuxedo Park NY. The booths are even next to one another 😍. We are stepping in as both Wanderer’s Wood and Dragon Folk Studios retire from the festivals and hope to bring the same level of creativity that both groups shared with everyone. Here are the shops from their previous magics, and we will be adding ours very soon.

This is an incredibly difficult situation for us all. We appreciate your support and we hope to see next weekend.

The Bristol Renaissance Faire will be closed on Sunday, July 19, 2026, due to the smoke from the Canadian wildfires. The Wisconsin DNR has issued an Air Quality Advisory, in effect through Noon CDT Monday, July 20, 2026, and we are following their advisement.

We share your disappointment—especially with our Cottagecore Weekend festivities interrupted. So we’re bringing Cottagecore back for an encore! Join us Labor Day weekend, when you’ll have three enchanting days instead of two to celebrate all things cozy, whimsical and wonderfully Cottagecore.

Thank you for your patience and understanding. The health and safety of our guests, cast, artisans, and staff will always come first. Please stay safe, and we look forward to welcoming you back to the Faire. We anticipate resuming our regular season on Saturday, July 25.

Due to concerns about the smoke, Bristol management has decided to not open Saturday. Please visit their page for more details. Stay safe everyone and hopefully we can see you Sunday, weather permitting.

We have some very special, one of a kind Walking Sticks available to elevate your look. Come see us this weekend in Wisconsin at Bristol and New York at Sterling. It is still smoky so be sure to hydrate, wear a mask if you are sensitive to particulates and take your time strolling the grounds.

🥳 came home to NY from Bristol to get more things made, to the beautiful sight of 240lbs of processed broomcorn and 55lbs of agave fiber.
