Event organizer hosts first vendor and craft show since March

ASHWAUBENON, Wis. (WBAY) – Many events have been cancelled because of the pandemic, but there is one type of show starting to make a comeback.

“A lot of people were ready to jump back on board,” said Kim Nackers.

Nackers is an event organizer through her business N.Event. She hosted a “Beat the Heat Craft and Vendor Show” at the Green Bay Distillery Sunday.

“This is actually our first one back since March,” said Nackers.

Because of the pandemic some of Nackers’s shows had to be cancelled, including one planned at the Brown County Fairgrounds which would’ve been her biggest show of the year.

The show cancellations have also hurt business for the artists and crafters themselves.

“Some of these vendors, this is what they do for a living,” said Nackers. Some it’s just a hobby, some do this as a second income, but some do depend on the income that come from these shows.”
