Our indie craft show attracts shoppers from the Southwest Ohio are who believe in the power of handmade. If you're a business owner who shares similar beliefs and wants to reach out to the creative community, you should get in touch with us!
Applications for the Crafty Supermarket spring show are now closed! We’ll notify everybody who applied of their status by March 15. If you’re accepted, you’ll have until March 31 to pay the remainder of the table fee — $85. If you don’t submit your table fee by March 31, we’ll offer the space to another crafter.
We get way more applications for the show than we can accept, so we can’t allow any late applications out of fairness to those crafters. If a spot opens up from a vendor being unable to attend the show, we select alternates from the pool of people who applied before the deadline.
If you want to apply to be in our next show, be sure to follow us here on the website, on Facebook or via our e-newsletter. We broadcast our upcoming opportunities in all those places!
Were you hoping to apply for our spring craft show? Applications for Cincinnati's Crafty Supermarket are open for just one more week — the deadline is 11:59 p.m. Thursday, Feb. 28!
Folks keep asking when the next Crafty Supermarket is going to be. And we have an answer: Saturday, April 27, 2013! We’ll be at the Clifton Cultural Arts Center, because we just can’t get enough of it.
We’ll open up applications for crafters in early 2013. If you’re interested in selling your wares at the show, keep following our website, Facebook or Twitter and sign up for our e-newsletter to be notified of when we post the application! And we’ve also got a handy crafter FAQ here.
See y’all in 2013!

Did you shop at our show this weekend? We put together a little 5-minute survey to hear how it was for you! It’s anonymous, short and sweet, and it’ll help us keep Crafty Supermarket awesome. Thank you in advance!
