Welcome to the 2023 - 42nd Annual Berea-Midpark Craft Show! Saturday 9:00 AM - 4:00 PM Sunday 11:00 AM - 4:00 PM The Berea-Midpark Craft Show is one of the largest and longest running craft shows in the area. It is the largest annual fund raising event for the Berea-Midpark Performing Arts Boosters. Your participation in our program directly supports our students and their programs. Our show is held at the Berea-Midpark Middle School (Formerly Middleburg Heights Jr High/Midpark High School). 7000 Paula Dr. Middleburg Heights OH. 44130. We use the Cafeteria, Sports Center and hallways for vendors. Whether you are new to our show, or have recently participated, Please read this information carefully when contracting with our show: Our Table / Space fees: Our $90.00 fee is for SPACE ONLY. Please note: This fee increases to $100.00 per space after July 1, 2023. If you would like to rent a table for your space(s), the rental fee will be $15.00 per table. You may contract as many spaces as you would like, with or without as many tables as you would like. These options are all detailed on the contract. Please note, under no circumstances are we able to approve any one day spaces.
Items being sold: Because we are a large show (200+ spaces), we do end up with multiple tables selling popular items, such as jewelry, soaps, fragrances and decorative items. We make every effort to evenly space these tables throughout the show, and will limit tables of some items. While we do encourage handmade items, we also permit unique commercially made items, collectibles and similar items. Direct Marketing types of vendors, including but not limited to Pampered Chef, Tastefully Simple, Avon, etc., will be initially offered to a previous year’s representative, then offered first come first served to new representatives. Only one vendor per brand will be permitted. Also, please note-we are NOT a juried show.
Cell phone / Internet Service: Please note that cell phone service is limited in the building. There is limited public wi-fi in the building.
Contract Approval: Confirmation that we have received your application will be sent by email. Table numbers and locations will be provided approximately one month before the show. This will allow us to better confirm vendors, and allow better arrangement of tables. Contact us: -Our Email: [email protected] to email us with any questions.

1.The Craft Show Committee reserves the right to use their discretion on what type of items can be sold. Craft items sold should have some handmade -or- unique portion to them. Commercially produced items are accepted on a case-by-case basis. Food items are generally discouraged, as we operate a full menu in the Craft Show Café. If approved, food items must be wrapped / packaged for consumption away from the craft show. (I.e. candy, cookies, etc.). Used or second-hand items or flea market items are not to be sold for any reason. Please limit items to only those listed on your contract. We assign our vendor locations based on this information. You will be asked to remove any unapproved items from your table.
2.You are required to submit three recent photographs of the items for sale with your contract.
3.Tables and Spaces - Tables are to be covered with a clean tablecloth and must be skirted to the floor on three sides. The tablecloth and skirt are to be provided by the CRAFTER. Tables are 8 foot rental tables. We evenly space our vendor locations throughout the building (Each space-8 ft. wide X approx. 5 ft. deep with 2 ft. between each crafter). All spaces are all set in a similar fashion, with similar spacing. Spaces are the same size with or without table rental. The space will be clearly marked, you will be provided a sign with your name and or business name included, to display for the duration of the show. We do not have square or extra large spaces. If your items do not fit in one space, please purchase two. Do not to infringe upon your neighbors - remain in your allotted space.
