Craft Shows?

Hi I am about to revamp my Etsy shop and I would love to get into some craft shows this spring/summer. I'm having trouble finding places to apply for a booth. Could anyone elighten me on where to find the craft shows?

Thanks so much!

Re: Craft Shows?

Here is message a member of our team asked me to pass along:

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hi, I was wondering if you would be willing to post a thread on the team page about a new craft show opportunity in Port Angeles.

On the second Saturday of each month the various art galleries have an open house usually 5-9. This is generally a well-attended event, at least by local artists and their friends and families.

I was speaking with the manager of the Landing Gallery, which is inside what is called the Landing Mall which has a huge atrium. We discussed starting a craft show at least on second Saturdays, and if it goes well, it could go all summer, and perhaps into the fall. We have a year-round farmers market half a block away (outside); this would give people a chance to have their merchandise in a weather-free area.

We are thinking having the show start 10 am (as the farmers' market does), but continue on until the evening, perhaps all the way to 8 when the artwalk is over. Cost will be $15 for a booth area.

I wouldn't think there would be enough business (at least at first) for someone to come a long distance, but team members who are local may be interested.

For more information, contact Etsy store Bob and Lindi : www.etsy.com/people/nwfudge

Or call me at my store, NW Fudge in Port Angeles, 360-452-8299. I'm there 11-6 pretty much every day ... and this week I will be here most evenings, as well.

Thanks for your help!

Re: Craft Shows?

We encourage *everyone* to post information about craft shows, calls for artists, classes, etc. to our public calendar at http://etsyRAIN.com/calendar - it's free to post, so if there is a show that is missing, please feel free to inform the community!

Other than that, in addition to www.craftmasternews.com/shows.aspx (as Kelleen mentioned) I also browse through:

http://festivalnet.com/state/washington/wa.html
http://www.eventlister.com

I'd love to know if you find any other resources too! Thanks!
