Welcome

We are the number one organizer and promoter of high quality art and craft shows serving the Twin Cities, Minnesota, and Midwest areas for 28 years.  

Our shows feature a fantastic combination of handmade arts & crafts, jewelry, bath & body products, home décor, gourmet food / concessions, glass / metal art, wood working, and so much more!

You can register and verify your registrations through your vendor Dashboard.

Our craft shows are extremely successful because we are committed to spending a higher percentage of revenues on advertising than any other promoter. All craft shows are advertised with mainstream social media platforms, local papers, big black signs and Radio.
