2026 Show Schedule
Hello Everyone,
Tuesday, March 3, 2025
It is 5pm and it is fully still light out! How wonderful. I love it when the days start getting noticeably longer. I am enjoying putting together my 2026 spring/summer collection. Below is a list in of shows I am hoping to attend this year. You will notice that some of the shows are followed by the word 'unconfirmed'. This means that I have submitted an application but I haven't yet received confirmation from the show's organizers that I have been accepted to participate. Jewellery is a competetive category so many artists apply and a well-juried show only allows so many of each type of item. As I receive responses from the organizers, I will either remove the word 'un-confirmed' or I will delete the show from the list. At this early date my show schedule is always a work in progress. Thanks so much for your patience and understanding.
Looking forward to connecting with everyone in person again soon,
Rachel Joy VanRooyen
