12-6pm saturday and sunday
Voted Asheville's favorite arts event 14 years running, The Big Crafty is back for a heart swelling weekend of creative community warmth.
We can't wait to see you!
The Big Crafty is a hand-to-heart celebration of creative exuberance held twice annually in the heart of Asheville, NC.
Our guiding principle is that supporting creative venturers makes for a stronger community, and our aim is to make doing so fun.
We extend warm welcome to the rich pageant of basement and backyard artists, juried prize-winners, and those who delight in them. And we’re so grateful to have been voted Best Arts/Crafts Fair (Mountain Xpress) every year since we began in 2008!
Join us as we support our creative communities in all their go-for-broke, full-of-heart, boundary-pushing, human-scale, all-in, full-tilt glory.
The Big Crafty is made possible through community partnerships with the Asheville Area Arts Council, The City of Asheville, & Explore Asheville.
