3rd Annual Rochester Queer Arts Festival

Fine & Splendid Things is proud to be an ally of the the LGBTQIA+ community! Find me at this year’s Queer Arts Festival, at Village Gate, for a joyful celebration of queer expression.

But wait, I know what you’re thinking: Isn’t F&ST already located at Village Gate? Yes — but this time I’ll be rocking a booth on the Atrium, featuring vintage art and accessories, plus handmade loveliness.

Saturday, October 10: 10am - 5pm

Admission is free.
