Call for entries! The New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival is accepting craft applications for the 2020 event, happening April 23-May 3.

The Festival will once again showcase three unique craft areas:

Congo Square African Marketplace: features unique, handcrafted artwork that reflects cultural influences seen throughout the African Diaspora.  Presentations by artists and vendors resonate with the rich African-Caribbean cultural legacy in Congo Square. 

Contemporary Crafts: presents work by both Louisiana and the nation’s most talented contemporary artists.  It features original, handcrafted, one-of-a-kind designs and accepts applicants from all crafts media and disciplines. 

Louisiana Marketplace: introduces Festivalgoers to a variety of  handcrafted works by only Louisiana artisans and craftspeople.  The Marketplace showcases works that express various aspects of the state’s unique cultural heritage. 

Applications are available at nojazzfest.com/crafts. The application fee is $30. Artists may submit an application to more than one craft area, but may exhibit in ONLY ONE craft area of the Festival.  ONLY Congo Square allows vending of handcrafted imports.
