Hello Crafters,
We invite you to apply to participate in the Handmade Harvest Craft Show, scheduled for this October. The church is located on Forest Avenue in the near West End, right next to Tuckahoe Elementary School.
Please submit your application early since we only accept a limited number of exhibitors per category (e.g., jewelry, pottery, monogrammed items, etc.) and will not accept duplicates. All vendors must have items that are either hand-crafted or available for immediate sale.
There is a $10 non-refundable application fee. Once your application is accepted, the booth fee is $65. You will receive an email confirmation once your application has been approved. Applications will continue to be accepted until each category has been filled. All of the proceeds from these table fees will go to support youth programs at Trinity United Methodist Church.
Our show will be promoted around the community, through Facebook, newspapers, websites, e-mail lists, and posters. Significant signage will also appear in front of the church.
We look forward to hosting a successful event that includes a variety of talented artisans. For questions, feel free to e-mail or contact:
Annemarie Tull at 804-387-1498
