This festival celebrates the operational time period of the historical
gristmill—from 1852 to 1928, and costumed vendors will display
crafts inspired by this time. Artists and craftspeople from the
local area demonstrate their skills and provide regional art for sale.
Bluegrass music and free tours of the mill will be offered. The historic
gristmill houses the fascinating machinery that ground the grain
for the community surrounding Slippery Rock Gorge. A Civil War
encampment and family activities bring history to life. Located in
Kildoo picnic area, and the gristmill. Visit the website for more
information.
