Emerging Makers Tent
The Emerging Makers Tent occurs every Tennessee Craft fair as an exclusive opportunity for member artists interested in taking their craft business to the next level. In the Emerging Makers Tent, groups of artists from each chapter work together in a supportive environment to gain practical experience selling their artwork. This experience is designed to help emerging makers take the next step toward exhibiting as independent artists on the main tent circle at Tennessee Craft fairs.
​


Contact your chapter or Tennessee Craft Membership  to connect with local craft fair veterans or previous emerging makers.

​​Tennessee Craft Fair

The Tennessee Craft Fair is a premier biannual event held on the Parthenon Great Lawn in Nashville’s Centennial Park. This celebrated gathering offers art collectors the opportunity to shop directly from juried, award-winning artists, showcasing one-of-a-kind, finely crafted works. A distinctive feature of the fair is that all participating artists must be present, allowing for meaningful interactions between creators and collectors. 

The 2025 Spring Fair will be held May 2-4, 2025. Save the Date for the 2025 Fall Fair: October 10, 11 & 12.
