South Florida’s Craft Show.
By Agrippina Fadel
South Florida’s Craft Show returns to Coral Springs with its last event of the year.
The Christmas Party is held on Saturday, December 17, from 11 to 4 p.m., and includes a toy distribution event, with drinks served and music by DJ Elite.
Visitors are encouraged to come in their best ugly Christmas Sweaters.
Korina Torres, South Florida’s Craft Show owner, started the shows in 2018, with the first held at the LaQuinta.
“I’ve had them monthly ever since, and even though pandemic managed to get the shows up and running as soon as the restrictions allowed it, and while observing all the recommendations,” she said.
Torres now hosts shows in Delray and Davie and will add two more locations in 2023, one in Boca Raton and the other at the Coral Springs Sportsplex.
She added that the exhibition space at LaQuinta can fit 55 vendors, and the show focuses on small, handcrafted businesses.
“Crochet, paper crafters, vinyl businesses, self-care products such as soaps, scrubs, and skincare, artists making stickers, cookies, bonnets, and waist beads, — we have all things you’d find on Etsy, but it’s all local makers,” Torres explained, adding that the vendors at every event are different.
The fee at LaQuinta is $100 for a 6ft table and two chairs. The events typically run four to five hours with a two-hour setup for vendors.
The show is held at the LaQuinta Inn Coral Springs, located at 3701 University Dr.
