Apple Day is sponsored by the Rockbrook Village® Merchants’ Association. Our jury is looking for experienced, professional crafters whose merchandise is a notch above that found in most craft shows. We also welcome new crafters who have created a fresh or innovative product. All merchandise must be hand-made and sold by the applicant.

Apple Day in Rockbrook Village® will be held on October 1, 2016 at 108th & Center in Omaha. Please indicate on your application if you have a general location preference (on the street, on an edge, or in the middle), or if you want electricity. If you generally like where you have been before, tell us that too.

For the benefit of crafters and customers, the Rockbrook Village® Merchants’ Association is limiting the number of crafters within categories. Quality photos of your merchandise AND your display are essential.

a)Completed applications must be received by September 7 (or ASAP!) with a check payable to Rockbrook Village® Merchants' Association for $90.00.

b)At least two photos of yourdisplay and your merchandise must be included. These will be returned. The better the image, the better your chances of getting accepted. Please, no CDs or web addresses for images.

c)All crafts submitted and sold must be the creation of the applicant who must be at the show. Absolutely no resale items are allowed. We ask artisans in each category to help ‘police’ this.

d)Only one crafter is allowed per booth.

e)Don Carmelo’s Pizzeria, Garden Café, and Great Harvest Bread will have crafter lunch specials that can be ordered to be delivered.
