What is a juried show?

Most larger craft shows are juried. The jurying process usually involves sending in an application

that includes photos of your work, description of your craft and in some cases a resume. When

you call or send for an application form, all the information regarding the jurying process will be

included. In rare cases you may have to send in actual samples of your work, however, this is

becoming less common practice.
