28th Annual Hilton Apple Festival
ARTS AND CRAFTS SHOW 2008

The Hilton Apple Festival Committee cordially invites you to apply for our 28th annual Apple Festival. This year's festival will be held on Saturday, October 4th and Sunday, October 5th, 2008. Along with our arts and crafts show, we are planning a fun filled weekend with entertainment, children's activities, food and music.

JURIED ACCEPTANCE
As in previous years, our arts and crafts show will be juried. Photographs must be representative of the work you will exhibit. It is important to send photographs that are of sufficient quality to judge your work, since the jurors will base their acceptance decisions solely on them. All applicants are required to submit at least five (5) color photographs of their work. Please include one (1) photograph of your booth and four (4) close-ups of your work, as both will be used by the jurors. Photos must be labeled with your name. Please do not send slides. Acceptance notifications will be mailed by the 4th week of April.

2007 SHOW AWARDS
Jurors will visit each exhibit on Saturday, October 4th; beginning at 9:00 a.m. Ribbons will be presented in the following categories: Clothing, Decorative Wood, Drawing/Painting, Fine Art, Floral, Glass, Jewelry, Mixed Media, Pottery/Ceramics, Special Media, Textiles, Wood, and Best of Show at 2 pm at the Main Stage. The winner of each category will not have to be juried to be accepted in the year 2009. The Best of Show will receive a free single booth for the following year.

CRAFT RAFFLE
We invite crafters to participate in our Craft Raffle by donating an item from their booth. Proceeds from the raffle will be donated to a local non-profit organization Thanks to the generosity of 2007 crafters, $2300 in proceeds was donated to the Hilton Food Shelf.
