ABOUT US

     Jim & Donna Huffman’s inaugural AUTUMN FESTIVAL arts & crafts show was held in 1983 in Omaha, NE.  Jim’s involvement with a family woodworking shop, his dad’s homebuilding business, & Donna’s background in crafts & attention to detail all inspired them to take their interests to the “next level” – creating a marketplace for artists & crafters of diverse talents.

     Since that initial event & after adding SPRING FESTIVALS to their line-up, the Huffmans have organized & promoted over 200 arts & crafts events in 12 markets throughout the Midwest.  All shows are held in premier convention center facilities in major metropolitan areas.  These fun & festive events draw customers from a radius of hundreds of miles away!  With exhibitors from all over the country, the Huffman shows have become a much anticipated customer tradition!

     Their patrons enjoy shopping the handcrafted wares for unique home décor, gifts personalized right at the shows, holiday furnishings, or special treasures for themselves or loved ones, while making a personal connection meeting & visiting with the actual artist.

     The Huffman's SPRING & AUTUMN FESTIVAL shows have been consistently ranked in Sunshine Artist Magazine’s Top 100 Classic & Contemporary Show List!

     In 2005, their daughter Jennifer joined the staff, & along with their long-time assistant Joyce, the company remains committed to showcasing exhibitors’ individual talents.

In their free time, Jim volunteers as a Boys Town Varsity Assistant Basketball Coach & promotes the Nebraska Prep Classic Basketball Tournament in Omaha.  Donna has been a tutor for the Literacy Center for the Midlands & volunteer for the American Cancer Society & Habitat for Humanity.  Both are movie buffs!
