Utah-based artisans, craft foodies, vintage vendors, STEM exhibitors, DIY engineers, performers and entertainers, multicultural organizations and Kid Row artisans are encouraged to apply online through the Craft Lake City website. Accepted exhibitors will be announced on Thursday June 4, 2020.
Craft Lake City wishes to further affirm our commitment to our creative community.

We want to ensure we are all staying safe while still providing our artisans with quality services.
Additionally, Craft Lake City’s 2020 Artisan Scholarship and Mentor Program, STEM Scholarship and Kid Row Scholarship application deadlines are also extended, until May 22, 2020.
