North Coast Conversations: The 51st Annual North Country Fair

With fall approaching and summer and festival season winding down, folks still have one of our annual events to look forward to – the North Country Fair, which is celebrating its 51st year of bringing arts, crafts and entertainment to the Arcata Plaza each September.

This week we met with Alex Ozaki-McNeill and Jessy Preciado, co-directors of North Country Fair, to learn more about the history of the event and what we can expect from this year’s upcoming fair.

The North Country Fair will take place on Saturday, Sep. 20 and Sunday, Sep. 21 on the Arcata Plaza. You can find more information or volunteer for the event at northcountryfair.org.

Raised in Arcata, Stephanie McGeary has lived in Humboldt County for most of her life and is proud to share stories about this weird and beautiful place that she calls home.
Alejandro Zepeda has worked for KHSU since early 2020, curating the news page, and working to add more locally-focused community content in the form of shows and PSA's to KHSU's lineup.
