Shoppers browsing handmade goods across an indoor arena, with Autumn Festival: An Arts & Crafts Affair branding.
Autumn Festival: An Arts & Crafts Affair — a weekend for discovering art and meeting makers.

Ralston’s Autumn Festival runs November 5–8, 2026, at Liberty First Credit Union Arena in the Omaha area. Huffman Productions’ indoor arts and crafts event provides a substantial holiday-shopping stop, with four public days and a ticket designed for return visits.

Build in time to browse twice

The organizer advertises artists and crafters from across the country. For a large shopping event, a first pass can help you spot the kinds of work that interest you before returning to particular booths. Look at construction, materials and care, and ask how a piece was made. Keep a note of the booth and maker when you need time to decide.
