2012 Craft Shows

Note: As Jeff signs up for new shows,  the information will be posted here.

Tempe, AZ. 2012 Spring Festival.  (Downtown). Friday thru Sunday, March 30 to April 1, 10am to 6pm. The Tempe Festival of the Arts consistently ranks among the Top 200 art festivals in the nation by Sunshine Artist and has received the Pinnacle Award from the International Festival and Events Association. The event attracts nearly 250,000 visitors to the Mill Avenue District  over the course of the 3-day weekend.

While the Tempe Festival of the Arts primarily focuses on art and the artists that create it, there are also a wide variety of other activities for guests to enjoy. Live entertainment stages provide musical entertainment for festival-goers. Performances by a number of well-known local musicians keep audiences in high spirits throughout the day.  In addition to the scheduled entertainment, street performers, vendors, sponsor exhibits and entertainment booths are set up for the amusement of Festival visitors. FREE.

Irwindale, CA. 50th Annual Renaissance Pleasure Faire.     (Santa Fe Dam). Open from 10 am to 7 pm  weekends from April 7 through May 20. This annual event is much more than a crafts show. It’s great entertainment for the entire family.   Admission is $25, children  (5 to 12) $15. Parking was $8 last year -- and I assume it will be the same this year.
