One of the most interesting things about being human is the ability to develop a unique hobby. Some are fond of sports; they join the varsity teams of their High Schools and seek to gain recognition by being good at all things physical. Still others are fond of studying; they believe that through the development of their straight A grades, they will be able to get a spot at a prestigious University.
Then you get people like me, who are into the fine arts or making crafted items. We pride ourselves that what once started as a seed of an idea will be able to come out into something tangible. It may be a sculpture, a painting, handcrafted trinkets or the shaping of wires to form discernable figures. There is immense satisfaction when we were our praised and the high praises we receive for our skills and talents are euphoric.
Thus, people like me who are into arts and crafts are always keeping an eye out for craft shows to join. I discovered there are countless opportunities in fairs such as these to showcase my wares to a larger number of people in the American Heartland. I just have to manage my time a bit better, as I am a student, a farmer's son and an aspiring artisan now.
If you are the same as I am, and you're on the lookout for a decent craft show to set up a booth in, all you have to do is look for the information you need on the Information Superhighway (also known as the Internet). With a bit of poking around, you'll be directed to websites that will list all the scheduled craft fairs in Iowa.
After finding your way around, check out the contact information of the event organizers. This may be done via e-mail for easy interaction, but the best way is talk to them; vis-a-vis, so see if you can meet up with them. - 16036
