Plan your visit to the Crafty Wonderland Spring Art and Craft Market, the largest handmade craft show in the Northwest.

Crafty Wonderland is the ultimate local handmade art and craft event of the season. The popular spring craft show is back in 2022 with all the things you loved from the past 16 years.

If you haven’t attended this magical craft fair in the past, let me give you a little background. It all started when two local artists decided to create a venue to sell their own handmade goods and help friends do the same. Since it began in 2006, Crafty Wonderland has become the largest handmade craft show in the Northwest. The craft fair has even expanded into two retail stores you can visit year-round.

Here’s all the information you need to make the most out of this year’s spring Crafty Wonderland.

Details

Crafty Wonderland Spring Art and Craft Market is taking over the Oregon Convention Center April 29-30, 2022. Close to 240 local artists are featuring fun, creative and one-of-a-kind goods. This event attracts popular local artists and creators like Mike Bennett, Etta and James Junction, Freeland Spirits, and many more.

For the past 16 years the event has been free. Yet to continue offering an enjoyable shopping experience, the event will have timed tickets this year. Tickets range from $4 to $23. Here are the details you need to know before heading to the event.

On Saturday, April 30, Crafty Wonderland is open from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Tickets are $4 per person, including processing fees. Kids 5 and under can attend for free. You will choose your entry time at checkout.

Once inside Crafty Wonderland, you can stay and shop as long as you want.
