THE 40TH ANNUAL CRAFT SHOW BOOK
For forty years, Craft Ontario has delivered the most trusted, reliable and accurate show
guide on the market, bringing craft events and craftspeople together through one publication.
As an exceptional resource that allows show organizers, suppliers, craftspeople and the public
to promote and access information, the publication works to increase the diversity and quality
of work at Show and Tour events. With the addition of further online exposure through Craft
Source online listings (www.craftontario.com/membership-programs/craftsource), participating
in the Annual Craft Shows Book markets events to emerging artists, craftspeople and craft
enthusiasts. At the same time, the book is continually referred to by craftspeople working in
all media, making it the ideal publication for a wide variety of advertisers.
Please note that there is no endorsement implied by inclusion of listings or advertising in
this publication. It is the craftsperson’s responsibility to research each craft show prior to
entry to determine suitability. Please see the list of key questions to ask show organizers
listed on page 8. Booth sizes, fees and attendance figures are the minimum stated.

Checklist for craft show participants
The following is a list of questions to ask when determining whether a show is the right
marketing tool for your work. In many cases, the answers may be found within the application
for a show. If not, call and ask! When in doubt, try to visit a show before you apply. Please note
that there is no endorsement implied by inclusion of listings or advertising in this publication.

There are some things you can deal with
ahead of time, such as planning your display
strategy. It’s a good idea to arrive early and
bring at least one helper with you to assist
with setting up and sales. You may want to
decide on a policy regarding sales (final, no
refunds, exchange only, etc.), order lead times,
discounts, etc. Lastly, consider demonstrations
as a means of attracting attention to your work.
Of course, to do this requires planning and the
necessary equipment, workers, and supplies.

The Annual Craft Shows Book is a longstanding and trusted
resource, and Craft Ontario is pleased to present the 40th annual
edition for 2015. Through the Annual Craft Shows Book we
connect makers to audiences, new markets, and opportunities,
and at the same time, ensure that the public has access to the
information they need to experience and purchase craft.
If you have come to this publication as someone who doesn’t
currently hold a Craft Ontario membership, we’d love to take
the opportunity to tell you a little about our organization, and
encourage you to consider connecting with us.
Based in Toronto, Craft Ontario currently offers programs and
services to over 1300 members across Ontario. Craft Ontario
programs and services range from the retail location in
Yorkville, which sells and promotes member work, to the
nationally-distributed Studio magazine that fosters critical
dialogue in the Canadian craft community. Further programs
include the 900 square foot Gallery in Toronto’s Art and
Design District; the annual Craft Awards program that gives
out over $25,000 to emerging, mid-career and professional
craftspeople; as well as additional retail opportunities that
include the annual Craft Show and Holiday Pop-Up Shop.
