2nd Annual Art 'n Craftacular Dates Announced

The 2010 Art 'n Craftacular is set for February 27 & 28. Once again the Loomis Veterans Memorial Hall will be filled with one of a kind crafts and gifts. You may have noticed that this year the event has expanded to two days. In these tough economic times us crafters need every opportunity to show our wares so we felt being open a second day would benefit everyone and allow us to reach a wider audience.

The deadline for returning vendors to secure their table space is December 27, 2009. After that date new vendor applications will be accepted as long as space is available. At this time we are not accepting any more jewelry vendors, sorry. The application is available for download on the website at http://www.artncraftacular.com

I am excited for February and to making this year a great weekend for arts and crafts!

Great Show Everyone!

I wanted to thank everyone who came out this past weekend and made the Art 'n Craftacular a truly enjoyable day. It was the first time for this event so our attendance of 300 guests was to me a huge success. I had many positive comments from vendors and shoppers alike and I really do appreciate the feedback. I work hard to make the shows a success for everyone so thank you all for your support! I am now working hard on the Spring Fling Art & Craft Eggstravaganza at the Gold Country Fairgrounds in Auburn, March 28th from 10 AM to 4 PM. Still taking vendors so if you know any "crafty cats" send them my way, we are already full on jewelry - sorry : (

Leaders of Workshops & Demos Wanted

Part of what is going to make the Art 'n Craftacular a really unique experience, and really set us apart from other fairs, is the presentation of workshops and demonstrations. People love to see crafting in action. If you have a special art or craft talent and would like to share it with the guests at the craftacular please contact me. Call 916-644-6879 or email me at info@artncraftacular.com and lets see what magic we can make happen.

New show coming in Loomis!

The first 2009 Art 'n Craftacular event is now set for Saturday, February 28th, 2009 at the Veterans Memorial Hall in Loomis, CA. I could not be more excited. I am hopeful that this will turn out to be a great event for artists, crafters, and the public. With an intimate venue I am looking for high quality affordable art and craft vendors to join in the fun. I also want this event to be interactive so I would like to see some of the vendors offering free demos.

I will be promoting the event all over the local Placer county area including the Loomis News and the Auburn Journal. If you want to help out at the event or with promotions please let me know, the more ideas the better for everyone!

I am pleased and excited to be hosting this event, as many of you know I have vast event experience but have never produced a craft show before so in that way this is an all new venture, one which I am passionate about so I know that will translate into an exciting show.
