Apply to the 52nd Annual Christmas Craft Show and experience the magic of the season! The City of Aiken Parks, Recreation, and Tourism Department will host an indoor/outdoor craft show on Friday, December 2 and Saturday, December 3, from 9:00 AM - 5:00 PM at the H. Odell Weeks Activities Center. The juried show attracts artisans and shoppers from across the Southeast and is a wonderful opportunity for crafters to sell handmade treasures to thousands of potential customers. Our 2021 show boasted over 6,800 people in attendance.
 
If you are a Christmas Craft Show regular or new to crafting and looking to participate in a historically well-attended holiday show, APPLY NOW! Be sure to read the detailed instructions in the application packet and provide photos that capture the quality of your work. Photos of your crafts are the only way for jurors to determine acceptance to the show. Presentation is essential.
 
This year’s Saturday show will feature a limited number of Young Entrepreneurs. This is a separate application, and applications will be judged independently of the adult vendors.
 
The event also welcomes food vendors! Not only will you have guaranteed customers by hungry shoppers, but the H. Odell Weeks Activities Center is conveniently located off of Whiskey Road, and home to one of Aiken’s most popular playgrounds.
