A Fair of Extraordinary Creativity & Craft in a Park
Join us September 7 & 8, 2013

2012 inaugurated the great Kinetic Carnivale as accompaniment to the Roots of Motive Power Steam-Up.  We hope you thoroughly enjoyed the vendors, the music and performers, the Whimsy Circus, and the verdant landscape of Recreation Grove Park in Willits.

Merchants from the world over gathered to display their decadent array of whimsy, dazzle you with glitter, and amaze you with confections that are as much a feast for the eyes as they are the tongue. 
Have you heard about the great new invention, The Camera? Sit still, and let the fabulous little box do its work, and in only minutes, you will have, on paper, a print of your very image! Unbelievable! Find it in the center, just past the Busker’s Court.  Props and backdrop included.
For the famished, we have provided a veritable smorgasbord of delicacies and delights. From the local wonders, to the exotics, we are sure to have something for everybody.
Keep your eyes wide open, in hopes to catch a glimpse of our founder and conspirator in chief, Prof. Theodesia Steerforth. She has just returned from an archeological expedition in Egypt, and is sure to be out and about both days.
Check out the handy Costume Guide located on this site.  All visitors to the Kinetic Carnivale are encouraged to be in as elaborate dress as they desire. This is the time to really let your creativity shine!
