You want eyeballs. We’ve got ‘em. Festival attendees will have access to our festival program, not just during festival dates, but both before and after the event itself. Advertising is easy and affordable with Wintergrass. Click the button below to view or download our ad rate sheet.
Exhibit
Wintergrass is an indoor festival in a fancy hotel with lots of beautiful space for you to show your wares and interact with festival goers. We love luthiers and give them space for people to try out your instruments. But we also love people who make beautiful things like jewelry, clothing, soaps and lotions and other things that make people happy. We keep things simple. There are large spaces and smaller spaces. There are two prices: $650 or $450. If you are interested in exhibiting at Wintergrass please contact Exhibit Manager Bruce Adolph.
