Annual Jury Session

If you want to sell your work to shops, stores, and galleries-- regionally, nationally and internationally-- Kentucky Crafted, a program of the Kentucky Arts Council is designed to help you do just that. As a juried participant of Kentucky Crafted, you have a chance to participate in activities such as Kentucky Crafted: The Market-- a wholesale marketing event, national trade shows, cooperative advertising, and other special events, as well as use of the "Kentucky Crafted" logo.

The 2008 Kentucky Crafted Program's Jury Session will be May 12 - 16, with an application deadline of March 15, 2008.
