About the event

The Schererville Parks' Holiday Craft Show is the longest running craft show in department history. In its 9th year, it's the Craft Show that started all other Craft Shows with Schererville Parks. This 2 day show surpasses 8,000+ in attendance with over 200+ vendors. The Holiday Craft show is located at our Schererville Community Center (500 E. Joliet St) AND we rent a giant heated tent that holds our largest gathering of Crafters for the entire year. This show is a crafter priority so you can bet you'll find some unique finds.
