Holiday Table Contest & Exhibit
Celebrating Creativity, Design, and Local Craftsmanship
The Holiday Table Contest & Exhibit is a unique event that combines artistic expression with community spirit. Participants are invited to design and present exceptional tablescapes featuring locally made dinnerware and pottery.
Each table may reflect any theme of the creator’s choosing—ranging from traditional holiday celebrations to sports, children’s designs, or even an abstract or minimalist “no theme” concept. The exhibit highlights both the artistry of table design and the beauty of locally crafted pieces.
Awards will be presented for the following categories:
Best of Show
Most Creative
Best Holiday Table (any holiday)
Best Display of Local Pottery
The Lady Slippers Award
Runner-Up awards may also be presented in each category.
This event offers an inspiring display of imagination and craftsmanship, showcasing how local artistry can elevate even the simplest setting into a remarkable visual experience.
