7th Annual ~ The Purple Painted Lady® Barn Sale FESTIVAL.
SAVE THE DATE!
September 23, 2017 from 9 – 5 pm with OVER 275 artists !
My name is Trish and I am the proprietress of The Purple Painted Lady. We have four retail locations between Rochester and Syracuse. As my business has grown- so has this venue. And my plans are to continue on this path. It is an amazing show and for vendors and guests…..I hope you join me on this journey! My second goal- is to always balance quantity with quality! With that said- you will not find anyone selling solar panels, or gas insert fireplaces at The Purple Painted Lady® Barn Sale FESTIVAL – (no disrespect meant to those things) but you will only find true artisans at the show…..with the majority of items being handmade or upcycled!
WHAT TO EXPECT IN 2017!
- OVER 275 ARTISANS, antique dealers, junk sellers, bakers, food trucks, breweries, wineries and farmers.
- Faster and more efficient access to parking! The Wayne County Sheriff’s, Macedon Town Police and PalMac Rotary are all involve in re-routing roads to handle the traffic flow for that one day since the volume of people who come is so great.
- Double the Parking Attendants
- Tables & Chairs By Food Trucks
- Lounge areas through out the show (why didn’t I think of this sooner?)
- Double the “Restrooms!” located in the front, sides and back of the show
- On-Line Map to locate your favorite artist
This is a one day event (Sept 23, 2017) held on our 60 acres where we live on Yellow Mills Road in Macedon (Palmyra mailing address though.) We average around 6,000 people in an 8 hour period.
Here is a 2 minute video from our 6th annual ….The Purple Painted Lady® 9/24/16 Festival. We had close to 6,000 people attend. Take note of the TWO parking lots at the beginning of the video that show how full the 15 acres of parking got!!!!

But before I go any further- can you LIKE my Facebook page, pretty please if you have not already? LIKE MY FACEBOOK PAGE HERE
We purchased the 40 acres directly across the street when it became for sale this past fall (2016)- so now there are no constraints that would prevent us from growing it more. : )
THIS SALE IS A BENEFIT:
PARKING FEE:
We charge $5 per car to park- and all of this money goes to the PalMac Rotary! I tell people to bring a bus since the $5 parking fee remains the same if you have a VW Bug or a school bus. LOL
$1 ENTRANCE FEE:
We charge $1 to enter. 100% of the entrance fee goes to the Festival’s Charity Of Choice. In 2017, Camp ONSEYAWA is the beneficiary. Camp Onseyawa was formed to provide a true outdoor two week living experience to children with disabilities that cannot attend main stream camp. Camp ONSEYAWA is a place where they can be themselves, not worry or have anxiety and truly….just be a kid with no other titles! This is a special camp and your support is greatly appreciated!
CHICKEN DINNER:
Come out and support the Pal Mac Robotics Team at The Purple Painted Lady® Barn Sale this Saturday, 9/23 from 9 til 5 at 845 Yellow Mills Road. A portion of the chicken dinner profits directly helps them.

THIS IS A BENEFIT:
Parking Fee:

They man it with a 25 person team- so everyone is flagged into a space and it is quick in and out, no double parking issues. I tell people to bring a bus since the $5 fee remains the same. LOL
