Description
| The MD Four Seasons Fine Art and Craft Shows, held at the popular, easy to find Carroll County Agricultural Center/Arena is an artist run event. This show is working towards putting ART back into art and craft shows and to do this, the event is juried twice - once when applications are received as well as on the day of the event. We are looking for unique, contemporary, folk, traditional art type items, as well as handcrafted craft items by the artists only!!! Re-sell, imports, reps from party planning companies, kit makers - DO NOT APPLY. To ensure crafts people and artists are well taken care of at this event there are cash incentives to help them earn money back, but you must apply early!
