Craft Shows and Fair GuidesIt doesn't matter if your craft is woodworking, jewelry, quilting, sewing, painting, pottery, or weaving. Craft shows provide the opportunities to show your craftwork to buyers seeking one-of-a-kind items. Craft shows can keep you very busy, but it is vital that you exhibit at shows that are right for your type of work. For instance, country craft shows draw audiences expecting to pay between $5 and $50 for pieces. Juried arts and crafts shows attract customers who will pay hundreds of dollars for quality craftwork. Below is a list of craft fairs and shows guides and listings. Some are local, some cover regions and a few review craft shows all around the U.S. To know if a show is right for you, ultimately you need to see it. If its a local event, definitely check it out before applying for a booth. Check out the busy booths and decide if your crafts look like they would sell. Are others selling similar items to yours? If so, that's a good indication the audience is right. Some craft shows review show performance by reports from crafting artists actually exhibiting there. This is great because you get firsthand feedback. You can learn how craftwork in your genre sells and how the craft shows compare to other fairs around the country.
