Anna Maria Winter Art & Craft 6th Annual

This 6th annual 2-day art and craft show takes place in the heart of Holmes Beach on Anna Maria Island at City Field on Marina Drive, across from The Ugly Grouper. The holiday event accepts handmade items and unique gift ideas, with a focus on handmade and artist-designed items, though the jury will consider unique/creative gift ideas, authors, inventors and designers for holiday gift giving. The show encourages emerging artists of all levels and is open to creatives of all types including artists, crafters, inventors, designers, and innovative creators.

The event is open Saturday and Sunday 10am to 5pm with free admission to the public. There are 100 booth spaces available (approximately 10' wide by 10' deep), with onsite bathrooms, free artist parking and trailer parking. Overnight self-contained stays are available for an additional $50 fee. Application fee is $15, with early bird pricing of $275 if paid before September 29, or $325 if paid after. Artists may apply in up to 2 categories.

Setup is Saturday morning 6:30am to 9am with easy load-in and load-out next to booths. All artist exhibitor tents must be white with no exceptions, and displays must be professional and pleasing to the eye. Categories are capped with no more than 25% jewelry, and participating artists are listed on the Facebook event page. The show provides marketing and advertising through social media ads, posters, rack cards, local tourism websites, local area signs and print ads.
