Arts and Crafts 4-H Project
Arts & Crafts Project Information
Arts and Crafts is a state-level project in which the sub-divisions of Arts & Crafts, Construction & Architectural Replica, Fine Arts, Model Craft and Needle Craft reside.
At the county level, we divide most of these sub-divisions into smaller categories to make judging easier. Once judging is complete, Extension staff will combine those entries moving on to the state contest under the state project and appropriate sub-division level within FairEntry.
