Juried Artist Categories 

Main Exhibitor, Community & Youth Showcase

The heart of the festival features approximately 190 individual artists, who are selected by our blind-jury process. Artists who participate in the Main Exhibitor or Community & Youth Showcase categories are also scored by jurors during the fair for an opportunity to receive one of twenty-one awards, which comes with one or more benefits for applying to the following year’s festival! This year, we are excited to reintroduce the Youth Category, welcoming artists ages 13-18 to the 2026 Community Showcase!
