A WHOLESALE EVENT OPEN TO ALL MAKING A LIVING THROUGH CRAFTS
Welcome to h+h americas – the platform for the North American Handicraft Industry and sister event of the German h+h cologne, the world’s leading trade fair for the handicrafts industry.
h+h americas is a B2B trade show with an extended digital marketplace accessible before and after our event. Open to everyone who makes a living in crafts, h+h americas serves a community without membership requirements. Our show dates in June are carefully timed to serve buyers with seasonal offers to the entire handicraft industry. The first time event in 2022 combined 2,000 attendees with 200 exhibitors who displayed a wide range of products from yarn, fabric, art, and craft materials to toys and pastimes. The product range also includes materials and tools for painting, handicrafts, gluing, sewing, modeling, kneading Clay adorning, and decorating to high-quality papers and paints, easel brushes, and graphic accessories.
