Millville to host Cumberland County Home Arts Exhibit in July 2026
Families can enter baked goods, quilting, canning and more in Millville’s July fair, with no entry fee and a June 22 deadline.
Bakers, quilters, woodworkers and crafters will have a place at the Cumberland County Home Arts Exhibit when the annual fair returns to Millville in July. The exhibit will run July 7-11 at the Cumberland County Fairgrounds, 3001 Carmel Road, and the entry form says there will be no entry fees for exhibitors.
The home arts show is hosted by the Cumberland County Cooperative Fair Association, Rutgers Master Gardeners of Cumberland County and Cumberland County 4-H. Funding support comes in part from the New Jersey State Council on the Arts through the Department of State and the Cumberland County Board of Commissioners through the Cumberland County Cultural and Heritage Commission, with additional funds from the Cumberland County Board of Agriculture.
Families can still get work ready for a wide range of classes. The 2026 book lists baked goods alongside painting, woodworking, drawing, needlepoint and petit point, counted cross stitch, crocheting, knitting, embroidery, quilting, flowers, recycled art, crafts, canning, herbs, and oils and vinegars. Age divisions are set for 8 and under, 9 to 13, 14 to 18 and Adult 19 and older, making the exhibit open to children, teens and adults alike.
Exhibitors are asked to submit entry forms by June 22. Forms can be dropped off or mailed to Rutgers Cooperative Extension at 291 Morton Ave., Millville, NJ 08332, or emailed to heatherco@CumberlandCountyNJ.gov. The entry form also says no entries or awards may be removed before Saturday at 8 p.m., a detail that matters for anyone hoping to enter something edible or fragile and take it home early.
The home arts show will unfold as part of a larger county fair that aims to draw about 10,000 attendees and roughly 100 exhibitors. The fair book sets Tuesday hours at 4 p.m. to 10 p.m., Wednesday from 2 p.m. to 10 p.m., Thursday from 4 p.m. to 10 p.m., Friday from 4 p.m. to 11 p.m. and Saturday from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m.
That schedule gives the exhibit a steady stream of fairgoers throughout the week, along with Wednesday fireworks, Saturday’s demolition derby, rides, a butterfly exhibit, food trucks, concessions, a petting zoo and pony rides. Wednesday will offer free admission for children 12 and under, while Thursday will be Senior Citizen Day for those 65 and older, with veterans admitted free with ID.
