St. Joseph, Mo.— April 14, 2016—Trails West!® has extended the application deadline until April 30 for food vendors, fine artists and crafters for the 2016 festival. This is a juried event with room for approximately 60 fine artists and crafters and 30 food vendors. Applications must be postmarked by April 30.
Trails West!® welcomes all genres and subject matter of artistic expression. While this year’s theme is “Yesterday’s Heritage, Tomorrow’s Dream,” the arts and crafts do not need to represent St. Joseph’s history.
