Exhibit

4 Annual Arts Festivals

Exhibitor Info

In 2024 we will be more strict on handmade items in booths. Our goal for this year is to get back to the roots of Applewood Arts Festivals with only 5% of all the total booths being “market” booths, that would include some buy to sell. 95% of our booths will be handmade/local artisans only moving forward.

Praise from our exhibitors

Jerry and Robin are the most organized and nicest people to work with, they address all concerns crafters have. Their arts & crafts shows are so well put together. I have been doing shows for 25 plus years, and I must say I enjoy being part of their show every year.

47 Bakery benefited greatly from being involved in Applewood events last year, surpassing expectations. Jerry & Robin demonstrated professionalism and creativity through meticulous planning and flawless execution. I highly recommend them for their commitment to excellence—a delightful partnership with 47 Bakery that we're thrilled to continue this year.

Maya Rodgers, 47 Bakery

Applewood Arts Festivals events are well-run and well-attended. Prices for attendees are low and several discounts given to encourage more attendance. Jerry and Robin are present on the floor for vendors and ready to help. Can't say enough about their attention to details!!

Cheryl Carpinello, Tales & Legends

We really like Applewood Arts.  Of all the Vendor/ Artisan Hosts, they are just The Nicest People :-).  We really appreciate just how much they are Highly Organized, and Professional.  And their Communications are Always On-Time, and Clearly Stated.  They have always answered every question we have, and in such a Kind & Friendly Manner, too.   Thank You Jerry & Robin 🙂

Michael VanBeber, Medicine Walk Photography

Applewood Arts Festival  are first rate events! They think of everything the holiday shopper might need, from coat and package check to a golf cart shuttle to and from your car. They are always organized which makes being a vendor much easier.

Courtney Scheffler, Lilith Soulful Creations

I have had great success in cultivating repeat and first time customers. Each show has been great-love the organization and personal touch show owners offer.

Terre Christensen, Potterre

Applewood Arts Festivals are wonderful shows. The vendors are dynamic and diverse with great products. Jerry and Robin are super friendly, warm responsive, and well organized. The shows are well publicized and attract crowds ready to buy. Applewood Arts Festivals are some of my must do fairs each year!

Valeda Mackey, Luna V

Applewood's Holiday Market is a wonderful opportunity for you to purchase a unique handcrafted gift for someone or yourself.  I love that they showcase local artists and their hand-crafted items. It is the best market in Northern Colorado.

Lynn Gilbert, Keepsake Boards

Applewood Arts have a great reputation with patrons who know they are attending a fun and quality event.  Robin and Jerry are the best! They actually listen to the artists needs, do what they can to accommodate us. And they do it with a smile!

Karen Oquin, Wood N Wonders

I have been lucky to participate in Applewood Arts Festivals since their conception. The promoters are wonderful people who listen to the vendors needs and put on a fabulous collection of artist goods at their shows.

Mary Rugg, The Madd Hatter

The event I did attend last year was very well organized with high quality vendors and an exciting raffle! Robin and Jerry are great to work with and do a great job of keeping things organized, especially in being flexible to accommodate vendor requests.

Mitchell Teston, Buddy Scrub

We love this show, we meet so many great vendors and customers. We hope to continue with Applewood Arts for years to come!

Applewood puts on marvelous, well-organized fairs with an amazing number of unique and popular craft items for sale!  Start with a gift for yourself, and then buy for everyone on your holiday shopping list!

Joan Hemm, Rejuvenated Remants

I have participated in the Applewood Arts Festivals for several years--lots of wonderful arts and crafts to browse and take home. Jerry and Robin put on a great show by taking care of the artists while also making things fun for attendees with raffles and giveaways.

Applewood puts on a great show. The promoters (Jerry and Robin) put a lot of effort into running the show. They are very available, friendly, and responsive. They choose great vendors. Their shows are top-of-the-line! I love being part of their shows.

Jerry and Robin with Applewood Arts Festival are total pros when it comes to the business of craft shows.  As an artist/crafter, I’ve participated in many, many shows and can attest to the courtesy and professionalism I’ve experienced in Applewood Arts Festivals.  Attendance was good and sales were way above what I expected.  A+

Donna Cook, Ten Thousand Scarves

Applewood Arts Festivals continue to be the best in Colorado as beautiful show events with a wonderful variety of quality handcrafted art and crafts. I am grateful for the outstanding promoters and awesome customers who have supported my work for over 20 years at Applewood Arts.

Julie Hicks, Snowoolies

Applewood Arts is one of the best shows we do…well organized, advertised, and they bring in the great crowds! It's great to have people come back every year to see us, so we always have new designs to catch their eye! We also love the variation of booths, no two booths are the same.

Jena & Jerry Andrews, J&J Welding & Plasma

The Applewood Shows are the best shows in Northern Colorado. They are well attended and well organized. Robin and Jerry go out of their way to accommodate their vendors. I'm looking forward to their new show at the Apex Field House.

Applewood Arts Festivals are the highlight of my year. We love the fellowship and cooperation and all around fun they provide, as well as the best marketplace for my goods. Looking forward to the best shows in Colorado!

B and B Glass has been a part of Applewood Arts Festivals forever, we look forward to it every year. Hope to continue for many years to come. We have a very strong following that come to the shows to see new designs and keep in touch with us. We demonstrate on site, do requests, and entertain the crowd.

George Heiney

We love doing Applewood festivals, they truly care about their artisans and the public! Huge variety of one of a kind merchandise, this is one show you don't ever want to miss.

Kris Mueller, Time Vault Treasures

What can I say, Applewood Arts Festival is top notch! There are so many high quality, hand crafted festive items to choose from. Truly something for everyone from hand made sweets to hand painted ornaments. The owners, Robin and Jerry pull out all the stops when planning these events which make them so unique. Can't recommend Applewood Arts Festivals enough!

Jess Blackburn, Blackburn Artistry

Applewood Arts? Absolutely! Jerry and Robin are by far the easiest managers to work with, their chosen venues are terrific which of course make things easier for vendors. Their reputation precedes them which is a plus to both vendors and customers - a true win-win situation. We’re proud to be affiliated with them and will continue to do so for years to come!

Julie Becker, Scratch Sweets

The Applewood shows are some of the best shows in the state. The promoters are professional, friendly, and helpful. The quality of the artisans is top notch. Their shows always have such a warm holiday feeling.

Debe Pickel, Cottage Treasures

Great attendance, great advertising. Fun show to do!

Kevin & Peggy Segelke

I did Applewood at The Ranch for the first time in 2018 and it was one of my best shows of the year…and one of the most fun!! I can't wait to come back!!!
