Guild Fine Craft Shows: League of New Hampshire Craftsmen Registration Information

The Guild Fine Craft Shows are a series of events showcasing high-quality handmade objects in a variety of materials, methods, and creative design. The shows feature the work of juried members of the Maine Crafts Association and offer a wide range of fine craft items, including baskets, ceramics, fiber, furniture, glass, jewelry, leather, metal, mixed media, paper, stone and wood. The Guild Fine Craft Shows carry a 40 year legacy of celebrating and promoting fine craftsmanship and are well-regarded for their focus on quality, originality, and artistic expression. The shows will also include a selection of juried craft artists from the League of New Hampshire Craftsmen.

Attention League of New Hampshire Craftsmen:

  • Only artists making in the media represented by the Shows may exhibit (For example, Guild Fine Craft Shows do not include photography, personal care products, other 2D fine art media)
  • We encourage you to apply if you produce original fine craft 3D objects in one or more of the following categories: basketry, ceramics, encaustic, furniture, glass, letterpress, jewelry, leather, metal, printmaking, stone, textiles (decorative + wearable) and woodworking.
  • League members who are not MCA Guild Level members may be offered booths in the show 60 days after spaces have been offered to MCA Guild Level members.
  • There is not a jury to exhibit, however there are some restrictions and your request to exhibit will need to be approved – please be prepared to supply additional images or links, besides what is found on your League profile page.
    *After filling out the registration form, you will be asked for a photo of your booth display (via email from lizz@shopmainecraft.com) to coincide with the approval process.
  • 25% Media: In an effort to curate a beautiful (and fair) fine craft show, booth space is also determined by the percentage of media currently registered, which could limit certain registrations. We will inform you asap if this quota has already been met.
  • League members may submit their request to exhibit through a form on the MCA site set up for this purpose and be notified by show staff as early as possible. (Link to the left).
