Your Unique Talent at Iowa Craft Shows

By Peter Schaub

A great thing about being human is the want to have an interesting hobby. There are a lot of people who are very fond of sports, whether as a spectator or as an actual jock; they can be found on the varsity teams of High Schools or after-school clubs and gain praise from excelling at physical tasks. Yet others are into exercising their minds and do complicated mind acrobatics, believing that good grades will get them into an Ivy League 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.

Needless to say, people who are into crafts are always on the lookout for different craft shows to attend. Living in the American Heartland, I discovered there are a lot of opportunities to showcase my creations to a larger group of people via these shows. It just takes a bit of time management; as a student, as a farmer's son, and an aspiring artisan.

If we're the same, and you're thinking about looking for a decent craft show yourself, all you have to do is go online and search for the needed information on the Internet. Just a bit of Internet know-how is enough to get you what you need of a few websites and you'll find a listing of all craft fairs in Iowa.

Once you find your way around, you just have to contact the administrators of the event. Sometimes this is done via e-mail, but if you can find a way to talk to them personally, then you should go for that option.
