I've heard good things about this event and look forward to this being my first dhow of the year. Not yet sure what my space assignment is, so look around for me. Looks like there will be food, music and more.

Bear on the Square’s juried Artist Market is one of North Georgia’s finest markets of traditional crafts, featuring a remarkable collection of one-of-a-kind, handmade items from the mountain region’s best artists.
Held around the Historic Public Square in Dahlonega, the Artist Marketplace presents juried work from an impressive group of more than 80 regional artists, including local resident and noted folk artist Billy Roper. Fiber and textiles, folk arts, furniture/woodworking, glass and metal, jewelry, mixed media, drawing and painting, photography, pottery, and jams, jelly, honey, candles, and soaps are almost always represented. A map with the locations of the selected artists will be posted in April.
My hometown Festival, This event is BIG! I showed here for 20 years but took the past few off to check out a few different events closer to my current home. Now I'm headed back to visit friends, family and hopefully see some old customers.
I will be in Space 94 between 4th and 5th streets. Come by and say hello.

I am confirmed as a vendor for the Spring show May 24-25, 2024. I'm not sure of space assignment, but they will have a directory and map of the show like always. I hope to see you there.
I plan to be well stocked with a lot of your favorite works as well as some new forms and glazes. This is fast becoming my new hometown show. Lots of good work on display, nice location and great staff. I will have a variety of new Sasquatch Mugs and other possible items for sale.
