“Charley and Tim are not only great promoters, they are personal friends and because of the friendship and my respect for what they do, I’m telling everyone to do their shows. These days we are all trying to be secretive about the few good ones left and I just as soon would keep this to myself but the bigger picture is more important.” Charles D’Onofrio, leathersmith and long-time Craftproducers exhibitor

Craftproducers is an event and management organization whose philosophy is the customer is always right. Well, almost always. With more than 30 years of experience in creating, owning, managing, promoting, and consulting, Craftproducers enjoys a peerless reputation with its exhibitors and host sites. At Craftproducers core are Charley Dooley and Tim Cianciola. Dooley, the company visionary, has personally organized and orchestrated hundreds of events and festivals since 1973. Cianciola, who joined him as a partner in 2004, brings tremendous financial savvy and marvelous management acumen. Currently they are supported in the office by an associate producer, Amanda Wright. Besides the team of three, Craftproducers employs several skilled subcontractors annually; many of whom have been with Craftproducers for many years.

Craftproducers is constantly looking for new and fresh talent to exhibit in our fine art and contemporary craft festivals in Vermont, New Jersey and New York. Visit our website to learn more about each festival and to download an application, and feel free to contact us with any questions!
