WheatonArts Festival of Fine Craft

From WheatonArts Festival of Fine Craft Website:

WheatonArts is an internationally acclaimed arts community dedicated to nurturing the creative spirit in us all. The Festival of Fine Craft, now in its 15th year, is our premier annual event and one of the most highly rated shows in the Mid-Atlantic region. It was named to American Style Magazine's Top 10 Fairs and Festivals for 2011.

Approximately 130 artists and craftsmen are carefully selected by a jury of WheatonArts professionals, including experienced staff artists. We take pride in maintaining an artist-friendly show with a high standard of quality, and are continually working toward a balance of mediums and styles.

Our comprehensive marketing plan includes extensive print and electronic media campaigns, full color publicity and year-long promotion through our other events and outreach programs.

WheatonArts provides convenient set up and breakdown, overnight security, booth sitters, and unequaled hospitality throughout the show.

Lodging at reduced rates is offered to exhibitors at the Country Inn adjacent to the show grounds, and at other nearby hotels.

Open studios, craft demonstrations and a variety of interactive children's activities add to the excitement, making the festival both entertaining and educational.
