The spring and fall Villages Craft Show is your best bet. It is held in 3 Rec centers and the fee is only $20. The great majority of people who apply do get a table.

Other craft fairs, like the ones that come to the squares several times a year, charge several hundred dollars for a booth. And those shows are juried - you have to submit a sample of your work and they decide if it is good enough, and also whether they don't already have plenty of your type of craft.

Another place to consider is something like Markets of Marion. I do not know how they operate.
