Vermont Crafters Expo 2026
227 views
Vermont's premier hands-on creative event experience, launching November 7-8, 2026 at the Champlain Valley Exposition in Essex Junction. This is not a traditional craft fair: rather than vendors selling finished handmade goods, the Vermont Crafters Expo is built for crafters, makers, artists, hobbyists and creative professionals, and focuses on the tools, materials, education and resources that help people create. Attendees can explore tools, machines and equipment; materials and supplies; hands-on demonstrations; educational workshops and training sessions; creative techniques from industry professionals; and workspace, organization and studio solutions. The Expo uses multiple buildings at the Champlain Valley Exposition for up to 80,000 square feet of exhibit space, including dedicated breakout rooms for classes, workshops and live demonstrations. Tickets are $20 for one day or $30 for both days, and kids under 12 are free. Produced by Vermont Gatherings.
