APPLY ON OUR SITE - CLICK HERE!
Dillon attracts visitors from Breckenridge, Frisco, Silverthorne, Keystone, and beyond, making it an excellent venue to engage a diverse and affluent audience. Summit County, Colorado, boasts an average home value of $907,853, underscoring the region’s economic affluence and the purchasing power of its residents.
Event Overview
This juried fine art and fine craft show will take place during Labor Day weekend in the heart of Dillon’s downtown area. We will be accepting up to 100 artists for this event, ensuring a curated and high-quality selection.
Three Key Benefits for Artists
- Built-in Audience: The Dillon Farmer's Market, Summit County’s most successful and heavily attended market, will take place the Friday before the show.
- No Show on Labor Day Monday: Historically, Labor Day Monday tends to underperform for art festivals. By concluding the show on Sunday, artists can avoid a slow final day and ensure they can return home earlier with greater sales success.
- Affordable Booth Pricing: At just $499 per booth, the Show offers exceptional value compared to other events during Labor Day weekend. At ColoradoArtShows.com, we are committed to supporting artists by providing an affordable, high-quality platform for success.

"Is there any money back guarantee if for some reason the shows are shut down due to COVID 19?"
In 2022, ColoradoArtShows.com was still able to hold art festivals even amidst the COVID situation. Safety protocols and distanced booths resulted in fantastic shows: the health officials approved our approach, patrons attended and were buying, and artists made money! We learned a lot last year.
Once you have been accepted to our shows, we have a no refund policy. However, if you stick with us to the point that a government agency shuts us down for any reason, we will give you your money back for that show.
"Is there any money back guarantee if for some reason the shows are shut down due to weather?"
In Colorado, we deal with all manner of weather. We proceed with our events regardless. If however there is weather that is threatening to artists or patrons, we may call off a day of a show or we may call a show over early. This does not constitute a refund of any funds to artists.
