If you are interested in participating in one of the Charm City Craft Mafia shows (Pile of Craft or Holiday Heap), you can visit http://charmcitycraftmafia.com/ and apply. Applications are currently available through April 22nd to apply to be a crafter featured at Pile of Craft!

If you are interested in joining the Charm City Craft Mafia as an actual mafia member (responsible for producing the two indie craft shows each year in addition to other workshops and general crafty awesomeness), the Mafia doesn't do an open application. We interview potential members based on need (like if a current member moves out of town or heaven forbid decides to leave the crafty fold), so the best way to get to know the group is to meet us at shows and keep in touch through charmcitycraftmafia@gmail.com.

Hope this helps!
