The “Art & Crafts Showcase” is the first section. Here you’ll read articles about improving your business, show reviews, advertising to help you learn more about specific events and business opportunities, show reviews, a listing of professional promoters and much more! The second section is called “Shows At A Glance.” Here you’ll have the ability to see a quick overview of the shows taking place each week. They are organized first by date, then by number of days and then by city and show sponsor. You’ll be able to see enoughinformationabouteachshowtofindit in the main listing section of the guide which we’ll talk about in a few moments. The third section is the “Location Cross Reference.” In this index we break downthestateintosevenregions,alphabetize the cities and then tell you want’s happening in each city throughout the year in date order. This is handy when you’d like to find shows to participate in that are close by or if you hear about a great event in a specific city and want to find out the details. The fourth section is named “The Shows.” This is the main listing section of the guide where you’ll find complete details about each event. If you’ve been a subscriber for very long, you’ll see that we’veincorporatedaneworganizationinthis section. As we’ve expanded the coverage of our guide, finding shows exactly where you wantthemhasbecomeabitmoredifficult. So, for those of you who only want to participate in certain regions you’ll now find all the shows separated by state... and then by dates within each state. We hope this will help you spend time looking exactly where you want to look! We now include information for shows in all the EASTERN United States, you’ll find shows in each state listed in theri own separate section. The idea behind the information we present here is to give you enough information about each event to see if it meets your criteria for an event you’d like to participate in. Since the very nature or our work is so unique, what works best for one exhibitor may be a terrible situation for another. After all, if the same thing worked for everyone, there would only be a handful of shows each week and everyone would be creating the same thing. Luckily for all of us that isn’t the case. No one could possibly participatein4000showsthroughouttheyear, but by having a great number of choices at your fingertips, you stand a lot better chance of making a good match between your work and the market you’d like to exhibit in. Additionally, no one knows your work and your market better than you do and no one can make a better decision on which shows to participate in than you can. Usually if you do well at a show, you’ll do well at other events that have similar characteristics. This information gives you the ability to put your knowledge to work and make informed decisions about the shows you choose. The final section is “The Deadline Alert.” If you’ve never missed a deadline, you probably haven’t booked too many shows! We’ve all done it. And usually the one we’ve missed is an event we’ve been dying to try. Once again “Where The Shows Are!!!” comes to the rescue. Not every show has a deadline date, in fact many just keep taking applications until they are full. Quite a few however require that your application be received by a specified time. Here you’ll find all the shows with deadlines listed first by the actual deadline date, then the date of the show and then you’ll see enough brief information so that you can locate the show SpringtimeSpringtime Tallahasseeallahassee
