February 23 & 24 
Key West, Florida
100 Artists
Deadline: October 15
Notification: November 1
The Key West Art Center, a non-profit community art center, sponsors this fine art show that highlights 100 artist exhibitors. Locals and tourists alike flock to the Old Towne to see what's new each year and to see old favorites.
The Key West Old Island Days Art Festival committee has extended the deadline for applications from Oct. 1, to Oct 15. Due to an unexpected absence of jury and committee members during this time, we reset our jury date and will accept applications up until Oct. 15. Notification of acceptance will still be Nov. 1.
In addition, this year this show is opened up categories of jewelry, clay, glass, wood and other "functional" artwork and we want to make sure that artists are aware of this change. Artists submitting in these new categories should consider their work "fine craft or art" as skilled craft is juried into our January Craft Show. If you think your work fits but you have questions, please contact us!
Cruise boats dock just blocks from the show and passengers are dropped onto the street a block from where the canopies line the beautiful tree lined streets. Running parallel one block from famous Duval Street and its famous bars and restaurants, is an added bonus.
Like Key West itself, this show has a wonderful mix of styles and traditions and the locals and tourists alike find their favorites. February's warm tropical breezes bring tourists of all kinds to our tiny island city and many of them plan their trip around the Key West Craft Show.
Just 100 juried artists set up on Whitehead and Caroline Streets in the historic district and through the famous Presidential Gates
into the private residential community known as Truman Annex. This compact arrangement makes it easy for visitors to walk the entire show.
This show is run by artists for artists, and strives to bring all the right things together for everyone to have a great show. Advertising is done throughout the Keys and South Florida with support from the Florida Keys Tourist Development Grant and the Key West Art Center.

Sent my app in via snail mail. They have not yet cashed the app fee check. Is this knid of normal? Wondering if the app package got there at all.
For anyone considering this show-it has been a great turn out for us for the past 3 years. Our local tourism is up and the keys are expecting a great tourist season this year. Locals and returning snowbirds have become repeat clients. We have also had a surge in 2nd home buyers who are typically here in the time of year. I would expect we will see the great traffic that we have in the past.
