52nd Annual Arts & Crafts Fair

From 52nd Annual Arts & Crafts Fair Website:

On behalf of the Shelton Jaycees alumni group, the Geese & Bear club, Im excited to invite you to our 52nd Annual Arts & Crafts Fair on Sunday June 5th, 2016.
This years rain date is on June 12th

Always on the Huntington Green, this all-volunteer run event has grown into an established community tradition kicking off the summer season in Fairfield County.

Last years co-chairs Kate Jager & Jim Nissen are going to be traveling for work on our scheduled date. Theyve recruited me to take over for them and I couldnt be more excited! 12 years ago I was the one who convinced Kate to chair this project her first time and shes run it almost every year since! My friend Jim has volunteered at this event along with me for over twenty years. My very first time chairing this event was in 1992 when we set our all time record for most exhibitors. Its been a long time since Ive been the one in charge but Kate & Jim are going to be very active helping our committee of Jaycee alumni do some of the advance work.

This years online show advertising will increase dramatically. Print promotion will be in all of the major area newspapers as well as on radio and community event listings. Web promotion will include a dedicated Arts and Crafts Fair page on our main website in addition to our regular Arts & Crafts Fair Facebook page!

Special note to new exhibitors: Were serious about diversity being the hallmark of our fair and we limit the number of exhibitors in each craft category to 3. Our fair is a juried event and cash prizes are awarded. Items must be your own hand crafted pieces or original artwork pieces.
