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.

Of course, there are those, like me, who excel in the fine arts or craft making. We take pride in seeing our ideas come into physical form and shape from raw materials, be it a sculpture, a canvas, unique pieces of jewelry or bending wires to form figures. There’s a satisfaction when someone praises our work and our talents. When someone gives you high regard, the emotions you feel from the compliments are a natural high.

As such, those that are into crafts like me are continuously on the lookout for various craft shows. Living in the American Heartland, I find that there are many opportunities to show off my creations to the general public using these shows. It is all just a matter of balancing my time as a student, as the son of a farmer, and as an aspiring craftsman.

If you are the same as I am, and you’re on the lookout for a decent craft show to set up a booth in, all you have to do is look for the information you need on the Information Superhighway (also known as the Internet). With a bit of poking around, you’ll be directed to websites that will list all the scheduled craft fairs in Iowa.

Once you’re in a site, check for the contact information of the organizers. You may do this via e-mail for easy communication, but the best way is always to talk with them face to face, so try and meet up with them personally.
