40 Days of Fine Craft

A new and re-envisioned celebration in place of this year’s Designer Craft Show.

Instead of a three-day market, this expanded 40-day fine craft retail experience transforms the Centre for Craft Nova Scotia into a living gallery and marketplace. It’s a long-running holiday destination where creativity, community, and craftsmanship shine together.

November 12 – December 21, 2025
Open daily, 10am–7pm
Centre for Craft Nova Scotia, 1061 Marginal Rd, Port of Halifax (next to Pier 21)
Free admission

→ Explore and shop from 45 local artists in our four gallery spaces, with everything for sale.
→ Enjoy weekly meet the maker events, sip and shop nights, artist spotlights and more!
→ Find something new to love each time you visit.

With new features and programming every week, there’s always something inspiring to discover—whether you come once, pop in for a special event, or come back with friends to see what’s new.

Come celebrate the very best in craft across the province.

Please note: 40 Days of Fine Craft replaces the 2025 Designer Craft Show originally planned for Nov 21–23, 2025.
