(Seguin) — One of the most beloved and nostalgic parts of the Guadalupe County Fair officially arrives today, as entries for the Home Arts division begin to fill the Exhibition Hall. From beautifully embroidered linens and hand-stitched quilts to jars of jam, pickles, and prized antiques, the fair association says these time-honored traditions continue to remind fairgoers what makes the county fair so special.
For years, organizers have shared how this part of the fair truly celebrates the heart of community craftsmanship.
Entries for the Home Arts competition will be accepted today from 2 to 7 p.m. in the Exhibition Hall. Cut flowers and floral arrangements will follow Thursday morning from 8 to 9 a.m. Once received, the items will remain on display through Sunday, Oct. 12. Ribbons including the coveted Grand Champion honors will be awarded to top entries across age divisions, from preschool to adult.
Each item is judged on merit, with all decisions final. Each exhibitor in the Home Arts Division will receive one free Exhibitor’s pass for each entry.
The Guadalupe County Fair and PRCA Rodeo runs Thursday through Sunday at the Guadalupe County Fairgrounds.
