Putting on a Virtual Event

The folks at Tennessee Craft, who put on Tennessee Craft Week in conjunction with American Craft Week, put together a series of videos with tips and hints for putting on an virtual event.

Templates for Participant Use

We have created a few templates for participant use on Canva, an easy online editing program. You will need to create a Canva account (free), but there is nothing to download and it is a relatively easy to use program. We will be adding more templates soon.
