Plans are underway for the 20th Anniversary Year of the Collingswood Crafts and Fine Art Festival, and we invite YOU to join the artists whose talents have made the Festival a success by applying for our 2026 event, to be held on August 15 & 16 from 10am-5pm.
The Collingswood Crafts and Fine Art Festival is a popular (police estimate attendance at 12,000+ over the two days) highlight of summer! Located along Haddon Avenue, the central shopping and dining street in Collingswood, our artist booths are placed back-to-back for best viewing and grouped to create maximum corner spaces. Ringing the booths are the town’s wonderful restaurants, coffee shops, art galleries, and popular shops.
The Collingswood Crafts & Fine Art Festival is unique because:
Booth placement or corner requests are considered by date of application. If you recommend an artist new to the show, and you are both accepted, the jury fee for both of you will be waived and you can be placed next to each other if desired.
Jury and Booth fee checks, a paragraph describing your process/technique, and current images (3 of work, 1 of booth) must accompany entry to be juried. (You may provide your Social Media address if photos of your work AND booth are shown). Please Note: We accept only checks, cashier checks or money orders.

The Collingswood Crafts & Fine Art Festival is unique because:
- A popular “rolling jury” process to promptly inform artists of their acceptance so they can make attendance plans and let customers and friends know they will be participating. Acceptance emails are sent monthly once the fee checks clear.
- Ease of set-up and breakdown
- Booth-sitting and an artist Welcome Bag
- Indoor restrooms exclusively for participating artists
- Opportunity with early application, to request a corner location or a space near previous placement
- A large audience of savvy crafts and fine art lovers drawn from the Southern New Jersey suburbs and Philadelphia area by print advertising, social media outreach and word of mouth reputation

UMMM Ice Cream Parlor Thanks for yet another fun and fantastic (and profitable!) Collingswood Crafts & Fine Art Festival. Very well run as always, to the point the level of quality is expected and the effort is unnoticed. That is a high compliment. It's tough work to stay good and even harder to make it come off so seamlessly. You folks do it, and I notice it and appreciate it. Keep up the fantastic work. See you next year! - Eric facebook.com/MudandFirePottery Thank you for your hard work. You guys run a very tight ship and I look forward to next year's event.
