Vendors Wanted: Takoma Park JazzFest

The Takoma Park JazzFest is coming up on June 15th, and they’re searching for crafters and artists to participate.

I haven’t been to a Takoma Park festival in a few years, but I remember the crowd being laid-back and pleasant, and there’s that quaint old town friendliness that flows throughout Takoma Park…

JazzFest, now in its 13th year, has about 90 10′ x 10′ spaces available for crafter/artists. The cost is $65 for all crafters, artists and resellers, or $30 for community organizations and non-profits. The Takoma Park Farmers’ Market is next to the festival site, so theres a built in crowd to start with.

This year’s festival theme is “A Taste of New Orleans”. Expect lots of jazzy, R&B, Zydeco, and boogie-woogie musical acts, and there will be a booth dedicated to the Tipitinas Foundation, which collects donations for displaced/homeless New Orleans musicians.

While their website is under construction, if you’d like a booth at the fair, contact Bruce Krohmer directly at 301-838-8909 or jazzybruze@aol.com.
