The Bluffton Area Chamber of Commerce reminds area crafters that the early-bird deadline for registering for a booth in this year's Bluffton Arts and Crafts Show is May 1.

This year marks the 40th anniversary of the Bluffton arts and crafts show. Crafters who register for a booth by May 1 pay only $40. After that date, the registration fee is $50.

According to Jerry Burkholder, director of the show, over 40 crafters have already registered.

Show hours are from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturday, May 21. Booths are on Main Street. In addition to craft booths, Hinkle Pony Rides will offer rides for youth, Hard Rock Llama will have a llama exhibit, musical entertainment is planned and the Bluffton Farmer's Market will be in place.
