With only 144 days left until the State Fair, it's never too early to start
craving those Fletcher Corny Dogs, plan for TX/OU weekend or even visit the
women's exhibit hall to see what other crafters have proudly been working on for
the past year for the rest of us to ooooh and ahhh over.
The official
Creative Arts Handbook has been mailed out and has been received by crafters who
are squealing with delight. For those that attended the fair last year and have
decided that this is the year that they are going to submit, here is your
chance!
This year the theme is Big & Bright and what a great theme it
is as us Texans love to live up to the song! There are 124 pages worth of
instruction and entry information; enough to make one calculate how many entries
one person can submit (over 1100 categories in case you were
wondering!)
As a disclaimer, more information about each category and
entry forms can be found online at State Fair Creative Arts Competition Handbook but below
is the breakdown for the important details and deadlines to be aware of before
the fair begins.
