This is the second Handmade Faire that is being planned to
celebrate Halloween and encourage folks to the impending
Holiday Season that support local artisans and craftspeople
and are sustainable. Please familiarize yourself with the
following rules and information, as we consider them
important to the success of this craft show to our future
Handmade Faires.
RATES
$50 per 8’ table space with 1 chair provided.
There is indoor, large tent spaces available, as well as
outside spaces.
10x10 spaces available outside the tent for the same price,
one table and chair are provided. Additional tables may be
rented from the facility at $10 a table and $4 a chair. The
Rental Facility requires us not to bring our own
tables/chairs.
Please specify on the application which you prefer.
JURIED
SHOW
This is a juried craft show. Art and Fine Crafts are
screened for quality, workmanship and appeal to our
faire-goers. The jury process is ongoing and will take into
account space availability and category saturation. Crafts
are limited by category to achieve the optimal crafts mix.
Only those products that have been juried may be sold at
the Faire. Booths will be reviewed during the Faire.
* To review your work we will need at least Four (4) photos
of examples of your works to be exhibited. (Please name
images with your first & last name)
HANDCRAFTED
Craftsmen & Women may display and sell ONLY their own,
original, handcrafted work. Imported goods, manufactured
products, kits, or crafts purchased at wholesale are not
allowed. Your booths and products will be reviewed during
the Faire.
TIME
10 AM - 5 PM for one day. You are expected to remain the
entire day and NOT break down early. Craftsmen who leave
early will not be invited to participate in future Faires.
You must not break down your display before 5 PM.
RAIN or
SHINE
The Hand Made Faire will be held rain or shine. All craft
show space is under cover of some sort, whether in a large
80'x60' circus style tent, or under individual 10x10 tents.
There will be no refund for any reason. The show will go on
either way, so be prepared.

arrival. Vendors will be notified of their space upon
arrival and checkin. Spaces will not be changed the day of
the fair.
VEHICLES
Vehicle parking and other specifics will be provided just
prior to the faire. Vehicles may not be moved during the
Faire. We ask that you park your car farther away, after
unloading, to allow for our customers to have good close
parking spots.
BOOTHS/DISPLAYS
Space under tables visible to the public should be covered
to the ground. Displays should be neat, professional and
safe to the public. No setup is allowed in front of the
tables due to township fire codes.

it friendly - please refrain from any political
advertisments on your booth, person or
