This weekend I’m taking a road trip to Ocean City Maryland, where I will join as a spectator of the North American Craft Show! Craft shows and fairs are spectacular events because they bring together hundreds of artists that have found their passion in life. It is a great feeling to be surrounded by all of that positive energy. If you are interested in finding local craft events, you can easily find them in your local paper. National postings can be found on various websites. I have sifted through hundreds throughout my research and have been satisfied with a select few that provide the most information without navigational confusion. If you would like to do some research of your own, make sure you check the date of the postings and the last time the website was updated. The sites that I’ve found most helpful are http://www.artandcraftshows.net/ and http://art-collecting.com/artfairs.htm.
