6th annual Minneapolis Craft'za

From 6th annual Minneapolis Craft'za Website:

New This Year:
We are moving to a two-day format for the fall Craft'za, with a twist. Each day (November 18-19, 2017) the show will feature a different, unique roster of artists! The jury will consider Saturday and Sunday as individual events, carefully selecting a curated variety of artists & products for each.

Why Make This Change Now?
There are several benefits of this new format:

-Larger booth spaces: We've rearranged the floor plan to widen aisles while increasing your available space. Individual spots are now 8'x8'!

-Fewer artists per day: Each day's event will include 50 artists, which means less competition for shopper dollars during your day of the show!

-More artists overall: We can now accept 100 total participants instead of 70. Expanding to two days means better chances for you to be accepted!

-Variety attracts an audience: Sunday is typically slower for weekend-long events. Changing the artist lineup creates excitement and gives Saturday shoppers a reason to return.

What Hasn't Changed
For this year's Craft'za we are returning to the Grain Belt Bottling House, which is a heated and fully indoor space in beautiful Northeast Minneapolis. The show is still free to attend, so attendees are using all their money to shop from you, not to get in the door. Artists are selected by jury to guarantee only the finest quality handmade art and crafts for holiday shopping.

In addition to the art inside, we plan on the participation of food trucks as usual, to keep everyone full and happy throughout the event. Plenty of free public parking is located nearby. The Craft'za is hosted by Scuttlebug LLC.
