Art from the 1750 to 1850 period. In addition, antique muzzleloading rifles, component parts suppliers and period antiques are included at the show.

Artisans who are invited to exhibit their wares have researched their particular specialty and pay close attention to making their items in an authentic, artistic and high-quality manner and are among the best in the country at their chosen art form. The Show Committee reviews all requests to exhibit and maintains a “wait list” for potential new exhibitors. Openings are filled with our goal of maintaining a variety of artisans, craftsmen and exhibitors. Each year priority is given to returning exhibitors prior to adding new ones. All decisions by the Show Committee are final. Brought to you by: ARTISAN’s SHOW, LLC.
