The Sun Lakes Arts and Crafts Association is a group of Sun Lakes residents interested in arts and crafts. For over 30 years, the Association has been hosting annual craft shows that provide members the opportunity to sell their unique and original handcrafted items to the public. Membership is limited to residents of Sun Lakes. Non-resident relatives and friends of residents are not eligible for membership, nor can they participate in the arts and craft shows. Meetings are held the second Monday of January and October at the Sun Lakes Country Club, at 10:00 a.m.
To participate as a vendor in our annual shows, you MUST be a member of the Association. No outside vendors are permitted, and no commercial products are allowed. Members must personally handcraft all items sold at the craft shows. Sign-up for the annual shows occurs at the general meetings in January and October. Membership in the Association runs from January to January, and membership dues are $10/year. Application forms for the shows are available on our website (www.slaca.net) as a PDF file. If you are unable to attend the meeting, you can print the application form and mail it, along with your check, to our treasurer, Nickie Wegner. Her mailing address and contact information are on the website.
If you have signed up for a show and are unable to attend, in order to be eligible for a full refund of your table fees, you must cancel your table two weeks (14 days) prior to the date of the show. Please contact the show chairperson directly if you need to cancel. Their contact information is on the website. Membership dues are not refundable.
