The story

Stan Hywet Ohio Mart in Akron

Ohio Mart has brought a juried, invitational show of fine arts and crafts to the grounds of Stan Hywet Hall and Gardens in Akron since 1967. Organized by the estate's Auxiliary Board, the fall weekend event gathers around 130 exhibitors and roughly 15,000 visitors on the lawns of the Tudor Revival mansion built for Goodyear founder Frank Seiberling, pairing fine craft shopping with food and live entertainment.

Its historic estate setting and juried craft identity make it a solid arts row.

What is special

The part that makes it specific.

01

The place changes

Ohio Mart is a fundraiser as much as a craft fair: proceeds from the juried show support the preservation and educational programming of Stan Hywet Hall and Gardens, the 1911 Tudor Revival estate built for Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company co-founder Frank Seiberling and now a National Historic Landmark

02

The mystery stays covered

Exhibitors are selected through a jury process rather than open registration, which keeps the roughly 130-vendor show focused on original fine art and handcraft rather than mass-produced goods

03

The city starts moving

The setting itself, a historic manor's grounds and formal gardens, gives the show a backdrop unlike a typical convention-center craft fair
