YASBIZ Registration – Community Craft Fair, Fall 2025

Date & Time: Wednesday, Nov 12, 2025 · 10:00 AM – 2:00 PM

Location: Courtyard by Marriott, 4 Sebethe Dr, Cromwell, CT (Google Maps)

Event Overview

The Community Craft Fair is a community learning event where YASBIZ participants showcase handmade goods, build workplace skills, and engage with the public. In addition to the vendor marketplace, the fair features learning workshops led by selected presenters. These workshops flip the typical event experience by putting young adults in teaching roles to build confidence and leadership.

Role clarity: Vendors and presenters are separate roles. Vendors cannot be presenters, and presenters cannot be vendors. Vendors are expected to staff their tables for the full event (10:00 AM–2:00 PM) except to take short breaks.

Ticket Options

There are two ticket types for young adults and an optional staff lunch ticket:

1) YASBIZ Vendor Ticket – $50 per vendor

For YASBIZ vendors who will be selling products.
