Kalamazoo, Michigan
Kalamazoo County Expo Center
9:30 - 4:00
Approx. 125 spaces
Deadline: October 1
You've heard how fun it is. This is your chance to find out for yourself! This is the show to sell your seconds, overstock, duds or things you're just tired of looking at in your booth, even your art supplies or art you've traded for!
What's not to like? Indoors in the deep of winter and beloved by customers. Bad weather does not deter these shoppers, they come by the droves.
It's only 6½ hours long with morning set-up. Make it easy on yourself, rent some tables and forget the normal time consuming display.
It's run by Bonnie Blandford (jeweler) and Michael Kifer (potter) who both make their living doing art fairs so they know how to make it more fun! Besides, who doesn't need money in February?
The scoop:
- $15 application fee
- Booth fees starting at $125 for a 10 x 10
- Very few rules (no buy/sell)
- Share a booth if you'd like, but all parties must apply
- Mark things down and move them out!

You've got it, Scott. That is what this show is all about -- clear out the work that you aren't showing anymore. It is well attended and people in the area love it.
I applied. Maybe going for a more uniform body of work with only Lego minifigures and classic Fisher Price Little People. So maybe if I get in, my other work (flowers, cityscpaes, landscapes) will be phased out...
