Join the fun at West Central ArtFest!
This beloved neighborhood festival is one of the most joyful weekends in Fort Wayne—filled with art, music, food, and the kind of community spirit you can feel in your bones.
You’re invited to be part of it by selling your work alongside Fort Wayne Clay in a shared booth that makes everything simple, easy, and convenient. It’s a low-stress way to dip your toe into selling at shows, surrounded by a supportive community of fellow potters (and a backup team just next door). Whether it’s your first sale or your fiftieth, there’s a place for you here.
This September 6 & 7, Fort Wayne Clay is hosting a shared booth at West Central ArtFest—a vibrant, two-day outdoor festival that brings thousands of people to the historic West Central neighborhood to celebrate local art, music, and community.
If you’ve been curious about what it’s like to sell your work (or just need a little encouragement to try), this is the perfect, low-pressure way to start. You’ll be alongside other supportive studio members, under a shared awning, using the studio’s credit card system, and backed by a team that wants you to succeed.
There’s even a free training night on August 14 to help you feel totally prepared.
Let this be your first step into sharing your work with the world. You're ready. Let’s do it together.
To sign up, you MUST be available to be at the show at least one of the days, including set up or tear down.
Show Hours: 11 am- 5 pm both days
Set up time: 8:30 am Saturday
Tear Down: 5 - 6 pm Sunday
Here’s what you get:
-
A spot in the FWC booth (with awning + tables provided)
-
Use of the studio’s payment system to take credit cards + track sales
-
A free class on how to set up your booth, price your work, and feel confident running a show (August 14th—mark your calendar!)
-
Support from your fellow potters and backup from Nicole, who’ll be just next door
All artists with FWC will use our sales system. FWC will receive 10% of all sales to cover taxes and credit card fees.
