Friday & Saturday
Port Huron, Michigan
Held in conjunction with the Blue Water Fest
50 exhibitors
Deadline: May 1
The Blue Water Fest builds on the rich tradition of the Port Huron to Mackinac Sailboat Race, a Michigan rite of summer since 1925, featuring a spectacular array of sailboats lining the Black and St. Clair Rivers in Port Huron. Thousands of people, sailors and those who wish they were, line the banks of the Black River, Port Huron to view the yachts. This annual tradition attracts spectators to Port Huron for the magnificent display of boats and now it will also anchor a festival of music, food, and fun on the river.
Why you should apply:
Shopping at the Blue Water Art Fair |
· Good exposure to an affluent clientele of boat aficionados
· A high caliber event new to the area
· Lakefront setting in the heart of a popular summer attraction
· Promotion that will make this a "must attend" destination for residents and tourists
We are seeking original, handcrafted work in all media. This seems like the perfect place to create an art fair that celebrates the region, e.g., painting and photography with a maritime theme, rustic furniture, creations with an "up north" theme. The attendees love their boats and love the Lake Huron neighborhood.
Because of the support of the City of Port Huron, we are able to offer these spaces at very reasonable prices:
· Application fee: $10
· Booth fee: $190
· Corner fee: $35
Working with the City of Port Huron is Jonathan Witz, producer of Arts, Beats & Eats in Royal Oak. He will be working his magic with the media and promoting the event to the nearby lakeside communities. Connie Mettler, publisher of ArtFairCalendar.com and ArtFairInsiders.com, is serving as the art director. I'd love to meet you and spend the weekend hanging out on the shores of Lake Huron, have some fun and make some money too.
The great promotion and the popularity of the event should have everyone on the shores of Lake Huron this weekend. Expect sunshine, tall ships, an affluent crowd celebrating summer joys and exposure to new customers. Why not join us?
