HOWDY, Y’ALL!
Did you miss us? We missed you! We are so excited to announce that Houston Fiber Fest will return in 2025!
We’re making some changes this year.
The biggest and most obvious one you’ll notice is that our vendor hall will only be open on Friday and Saturday this year. Venue rental costs have skyrocketed since the start of the pandemic, and unfortunately our income has not.
There is also a possibility we may have to charge attendees a small entrance fee. Were exploring sponsorship options to see if we can avoid that. Since we are not independently wealthy (If you know any lottery winners, please send them our way!), this event has to pay for itself in order to be sustainable. We’re doing what we can to try and make that happen.
We are run entirely by volunteers, which helps a lot. The income from an entrance fee, plus the money we save by not renting the vendor hall for a third day, was enough to balance the budget for this year. We know that’s not the best news, but we’re going to have a fun year anyway!
DRUMROLL PLEASE…
We are accepting vendor applications! If you’re a vendor who would like to apply for a booth at Houston Fiber Fest, click the link below. If you are a future attendee, please forward this email to your favorite yarn stores, indie dyers, and fiber artists and tell them you’d like to see them at our show!
